Malaga boasts pretty streets, leafy boulevards and lush gardens. Find out why the city's Cathedral is called 'La Manquita' – the one armed lady! Malaga Cathedral offers audio guides to enable you to explore the building and its numerous chapels and enjoy the artwork, hand-carved choir stalls and the grand altar which commands your view. Hear all about the old palace fortress and its 2 rings of walls. Hop off at The Teatro Romano – the result of an ancient excavation and re-construction work. The amphitheatre itself has not been used since 3rd century and the Moors used some of the stones to build their fortification, the Alcazaba. The nearby Alcazaba also offers a museum, pleasant gardens and fantastic views. While in the vicinity, visit Castillo de Gibralfaro for a look at the ramparts and more scenic views. Explore the birthplace of Picasso – wander around the Museo Picasso and learn about the great artist’s life, punctuated by his notes and sketches, right through his great paintings and ceramics. For works by other major artists, international art, and contemporary pieces visit the Centro de Srte Contemporaneo. Hop off at the Plaza de Toros, Malaga’s bull ring, or travel south to Malaga Beach which was artificially made in the late 1800s using sand from the Sahara Desert. It is popular with joggers and mountain bikers, home to a variety of water sports, and a favourite spot for picnics and moonlit walks. Take a look around Mercado de las Flores, a popular flower market in the city or wile away the hours in La Concepcion - Jardin Botanico-Historico, a delightful 19th century garden full of exotic flowers and ancient Roman statues. See the Cementerio Ingles, the first protestant cemetery in Spain to find the chapel of San Jorge and a set of burial monuments and tombs. In the evening – whether you prefer to dine in a restaurant and appreciate scenic views or party the night away – there are Spanish bars, R&B nights, jazz and reggae bars and house and techno clubs available in the city.
From the open-top double-decker bus, you can see the city’s famous sights and landmarks – highlighting the major things to do in the city so that you can hop-on and off at your own convenience.
