Excursion departs from Marbella
First settled by the seafaring Phoenicians because of its natural harbour, and later conquered by the Arabs, it finally fell into the Spanish hands in 1487. Overlooking the central part of the city one can see the remains of the Arab fortress Alcazaba, and adjacent to it the Gibralfaro castle, originally Phoenician, and later rebuilt by the Arabs. In the centre of the city we will visit the unfinished Cathedral, Lady of the Incarnation, built on the site of a ruined mosque, the old quarter, the Palace of Buenavista, housing the Picasso museum. Later, visit the bullring and finally taste some of Malaga’s sweet wines.
