Malaga Travel Guide (Unanchor) - Malaga, Spain – 2-Day Tour from the Moors to Picasso

Malaga, Spain â€“ 2-Day Tour from the Moors to Picasso
MÃ¡laga is one of the oldest cities in the world with its history dating back to the Phoenicians in the eighth century BCE. It is an elegant, vibrant and interesting city and has been the home and birthplace of many famous people including Pablo Picasso and Antonio Banderas.

Are you a lover of art and history?

Then this is the itinerary for you! The itinerary focuses on the area around the port and the old town of MÃ¡laga. Day One takes in the east side and Day Two the west side. Both days have a mixture of art, museums and sights. Included in the itinerary are:

Museum of Popular Arts and Customs

This quaint museum is often missed, which is the loss of others but not you! With open displays shown in a Moorish-influenced old tavern, you get to see the MÃ¡laga of yesteryear for a tiny â‚¬2.

MÃ¡laga Market

Although I have recommended restaurants and tapas bars in the itinerary sometimes a picnic is just as good. This market with its fresh produce is where the locals do their shopping. Grab fresh bread, some olives, cheese and oil, and create your own feast - or simply enjoy the sights and smells of the real MÃ¡laga.

The English Cemetery

A little known fact: MÃ¡laga was the first place in Spain to have a cemetery for non-Catholic Christians. The first day's itinerary takes you to these beautiful restful gardens.

These are just tasters of a delicious 2 days. Also included are:
- The Pablo Picasso Museum
- The Carmen thyssen museum
- MÃ¡laga Cathedral
- Alcazaba and Roman Theatre
- Castel Gibralfaro
- The Bullring
- Contemporary Art Gallery
- Restaurant Recommendations

What does this Malaga itinerary include?

The itinerary has been split into two days allowing ample time for the sights to be taken in without rushing. Each sight is accompanied with pictures and a walking map to ensure a stress-free experience.

Time has also been given for siestas and long lunches â€“ the Spanish way! In the height of the summer, the temperatures can reach 40ËšC and walking during that heat is not advised and can be very tiring. In addition, a number of shops and sights close between the hours of 2pm and 4pm. The hottest part of the day therefore has been given over to food and relaxation.

To help make your stay as enjoyable as possible I have included a number of useful Spanish words and phrases in the Appendix.

Still unsure?
My e-mail is in the itinerary and I am always happy to help. I can guarantee that if art and history interest you, you will have a wonderful vacation in this fascinating city!
