With half a million inhabitants, Málaga is the heartbeat of the Costa del Sol. Many ancient civilizations have left their mark here, evident in Málaga's rich archaeological remains and fascinating monuments.
From the outside, admire the beautiful architecture of the Alcazaba Palace -- a historic castle built in the 11th century as a residence for the Arabian caliphs or kings. It is connected to Gibralfaro Castle. This ancient Moorish fortress offers breathtaking views of the city and the bay.
Leave the castle for a walking tour of the city, guaranteed to stimulate your senses and your appetite.
From the coach, admire the ruins of the façade of the Bullring (one of the busiest in Spain) and some interesting and beautiful 19th-century buildings -- City Hall, the Justice Courts, and the Central Post Office. You'll also stop briefly in Plaza de la Merced to snap photos of Picasso's birthplace.
Finally, get acquainted with Málaga's local gastronomic traditions, savoring the ingredients that make its cuisine memorable. Three different bars await you for a taste of delicious tapas, a local way of eating that offers a chance to sample several different small dishes. Examples include Iberian ham, paella and Spanish omelets. You'll feel like a local as you indulge in this truly Spanish mealtime tradition of delectable bites.
