[Spain🇪🇸] Recommended for beginners to Spain! A one-day tour of Malaga🌴🍊

"I've heard of Malaga, but where is it?"
This is what we want to know for people like that!
Malaga, a port city in the Andalusia region of southern Spain, is full of charm, such as the blue sea, the white town, delicious food, and Picasso's hometown✨

This time, we will introduce a model plan that allows you to enjoy Malaga efficiently and thoroughly in one day!

[9:00] Start walking around the city at Malaga Cathedral, where you can feel the history⛪

First, go to "Malaga Cathedral (Catedral de Málaga)", the center of the old town.
The beautiful exterior and the majesty of the interior, which combines Spanish Baroque architecture and Renaissance style, are a must-see!

🎫 Admission fee: Approximately €8 (Tickets with rooftop access are also available)
💡 There are few people in the morning, so it's easy to take photos♪

[10:30] Enjoy an artistic moment at the Picasso Museum🎨

Malaga is the birthplace of Pablo Picasso! The Picasso Museum (Museo Picasso Málaga) exhibits a wide range of works from his early period to his later years, and even if you are not familiar with art, you can enjoy it.

📍3 minutes walk from the cathedral
⏱ Duration: about 1 hour
🎫 Admission fee: from €12 (recommended with audio guide)

[12:00] Spectacular hiking at Gibralfaro Castle and Alcazaba 🌄

It is recommended to visit both Gibralfaro Castle (Castillo de Gibralfaro), which offers a panoramic view of the city of Malaga and the sea, and Alcazaba (Alcazaba), which has beautiful mosaic decorations!

[15:30] Relaxing beach time at Malagueta Beach 🌊

"Playa de la Malagueta", just a short walk from the port, is a beach loved by locals.

We recommend reading a book or taking a walk while looking at the sea. If you have time, take a break on a bench with an ice cream in hand◎

🌅 The contrast between the sea and the city in the evening is fantastic!

[17:00] Searching for souvenirs on the shopping street 👜

Finally, shopping at "Marqués de Larios Street" in the old town.
