You can easily leave the Roman Amphitheater to visit the Muslim fortress the Alcazaba, admire the splendid renaissance cathedral and then submerge yourself in the lively atmosphere of the nearby streets. You can see the city on foot, in a horse-drawn carriage or with the Malaga tour bus.
We went to a a park besides the Alcazaba and there were tables ready to be served with Tapas especial tasty food from the region. What a delightful treat.
You can really get an impression of the essence of Malaga during it’s many ‘fiestas’. Between all the festivities that take place in the city, the Semana Santa (Holy Week, in April) and the Feria (around the 19th of August) are probably the most important. From May until June there is the Fiesta de las Cruces, the Feast of Los Patronos San Ciríaco, Santa Paula and the Noche de San Juan. In July there is the Fiesta of the Virgen del Carmen.
As for the city’s beaches you can find anything from steep cliffs and small coves towards the East, to the very central, famous Malagueta beach (the Paseo Marítimo Picasso) to endless sandy beaches to the West.
