Monuments

Although Malaga is known by million tourist as a holiday place because of its Mediterranean climate, its lovely beaches and the warm character of its people we can not forget that the city owns many beautiful monuments such as the Cathedral (17th century) and countless churches like la Victoria church (15th century).
We can admire the Alcazaba as well, an arab monument built in the 11th century and the Roman Theatre placed next to that monument. It is also very interesting Gibralfaro Castle (11th century) which because of being placed at the top of Málaga offers lovely views of the bullring, the Town Hall and the port.

But perhaps the internationally famous Picasso museum, dedicated to the well-known painter is the most important thing Málaga can offer the visitor.
