My expat journey
Provincia de M谩laga, Andalusia, Spain
Entrepreneur
Malaga, called "the beautiful", is located in the center of the basin of the same name, in a space between the hills, the course of the Guadalhorce and the coastal strip leading to the Axarqu铆a region.
Its privileged geographical location has always attracted travelers, traders, settlers, warriors, etc., who have left their mark in this now cosmopolitan, universal, open, relaxed and hospitable city.
The places and monuments worthy of interest are so numerous that we can only list them: To the east, the suburb of El Palo with its typical fishermen's houses, its small coves, its walks and its traditional fish frys, leads to the Paseo Mar铆timo (promenade along the sea) with its beaches, the Bullring district called La Malagueta, the Farola (the Lighthouse, which has become a symbol of the city) and the pier of the port from which you can enjoy a magnificent panoramic view of the city. Heading towards the center, we find Avenue du Parc which contains botanical species from all over the world perfectly adapted here thanks to the mild climate. This park takes us to the old town: the imposing Cathedral, the Gibralfaro Castle, dating from the Muslim dynasty, La Alcazaba or Arab fortress, renovated for the enjoyment of all, and finally, the Roman Theater, testimony to what the city was like at that time. Further up, Place de la Merced with the birthplace of the painting genius Picasso. This entire route is dotted with numerous churches worthy of interest: San Juan, Santiago, Santo Domingo, los Santos M谩rtires; the Convent of San Agust铆n and the Episcopal Palace; finally civil buildings such as the Palace of the Counts of Buenavista and the Consulate House.
A walk through its streets reminds us of its spectacular Holy Week and its grandiose Feria.
To the west and north we find the modern city, resulting from the urban growth of the sixties and the beaches of Misericordia which lead to the mouth of the Guadalhorce, a protected area and refuge for thousands of migratory birds.
In the surroundings, romantic gardens such as La C贸nsula or El Retiro in the suburb of Churriana; towards the north, the Jardin de la Concepci贸n or the Hacienda de San Jos茅, testimonies of a resplendent economic past.
This whole area is dominated by the Montes de M谩laga, a magnificent Natural Park of hills and small mountains, an ideal place to enjoy its charms.
Finally, it is worth adding to this many other tourist offerings such as golf courses and water sports as well as other attractions that are difficult to measure such as climate, light, cuisine and charm.
