Set along the stunning Costa del Sol coastline in the Autonomous Andalusian region, Malaga is not just a stunning Spanish costal town, it is also the cultural and historical focal point of the region. With a history dating back over 2000 years, Malaga is one of Spain’s, and indeed the worlds, oldest cities. In more recent years economic development in the area has focused on tourism and technology services, giving Malaga appeal to visitors and investors alike.

From its Roman, Islamic, and Christian pasts there are examples of the influence these civilisations have had on the area - in abundance in fact. The Castillo de Gibralfaro and the Alcazaba of Malaga are particularly stunning examples of ancient fortifications, offering stunning views of the city below from atop its ancient walls. Many more examples within the city, such as the Malaga Cathedral, only serve to show how varied and spectacular its history really is.

These include the Picasso museum which celebrated the famous artists’ origins in Malaga. For those less interested in this kind of art, the quirky Automobile and Fashion museum may appeal.

The regions climate ensures that almost every day is a day that can be spend outdoors, and with so many beaches, as well as an idyllic mix of culture, history, and pure relaxation, it’s no wonder the area draws so much popularity.
