Some information about Malaga

Malaga is a port city in Andalusia, southern Spain, on the Costa del Sol coast of the Mediterranean. According to the 2007 census the population is 561,250.

As well as homage to the great Picasso, other great historic monuments include the imposing Baroque Cathedral, popularly known as La Manquita (One Armed Woman), referring to its rather lopsided appearance due to the missing east bell tower. High on the hill above the city is the Parador (state run hotel) of great historic importance. It was once a Moorish castle and is a wonderful place to either stay the night or have a long lunch enjoying these privileged surroundings with panoramic views over Malaga city and out across the port to sea.

Malaga centre is not only the perfect place to explore the many historical monuments, atmospheric little streets and squares with delightful cafe culture, but it is also a wonderful shopping centre. The main street to head for runs perpendicular to the stunning tree lined avenue, the Alameda, and starts at the Plaza Marina, near the port.
