Málaga Centre is a cosmopolitan city, the capital of the Costa del Sol and with a history that dates back to the Phoenician times when it was founded and later on passed onto the Romans and Arabs, who left us part of their culture and constructions. Malaga was finally conquered by the Catholic Kings in 1487, leaving us an incomplete cathedral due to the lack of funds back then, known as ‘La Manquita’. 

Apart from the above-mentioned, Malaga is the city of Pablo Picasso’s birthplace, and the square where he used to play as a child still exists today, as well as his house which is now a museum which you can visit during your stay in Malaga. Malaga has the second-biggest port in Spain, recently modernised, and is now also a great place to spend a day’s shopping.
