    Review of: Museo Automovilistico & de la Moda
    A wide variety of exquisitely preserved old cars
    I am not a "car guy". I could not identify more than a couple models on the road. So it came as a big surprise to me just how much I enjoyed visiting the Museo Automovilistico & de la Moda in Málaga.

    You will find lots of beautifully preserved old cars from Europe and North America, with witty plaques in Spanish and English. As we were on our way to take the AVE train to Madrid and were happy to see that the museum stores luggage as you wander around.

    Review of: Mercado Central de Atarazanas
    Good local market
    The market is very conveniently located with lots of great food stalls, selling a variety of fresh food produce which we love! But as others have pointed out already, the v few food stalls there are geared towards tourists...

    Review of: Malaga Cathedral
    Worth going
    The Malaga Cathedral is a magnificent building that is worth a visit. The roof top also offers a very good view of the city.

    We pre-booked our tickets but it might not be necessary- we went on a Sunday afternoon and there was a short queue for those who didn't pre-book.

    Review of: Castillo de Gibralfaro
    long walk, worth the view
    to get to the top of this castle, is a long and hard walk from the Alcazaba, but after you get to the top, the view is worth it

    Review of: Museo Picasso Malaga
    I understand Picasso so much more now. Worth the visit.
    I love to spend time in art museums, so I prefer to go solo and take my time. This was a great way to get to know Picasso. The art work displayed showed his entire span from early works when he was just learning all the way to the early 1970s before his death. Worth the visit.

    Review of: Museo del Vidrio y Cristal de Malaga
    Real find!
    A unique museum - you should definitely go!! A real find, very interesting with the added benefit of a personal guide, who was extremely knowledgeable. It’s one person’s collection, which makes it special

    Review of: Museo Carmen Thyssen Malaga
    Enchanting collection
    Countess and international socialite Carmen Thyssen obviously assembled her impressively deep collection of Spanish art from the mid-19th to early 20th Centuries with an eye to the paintings' purpose. Some of the most interesting were genre paintings that bordered on kitsch -- rosy-cheeked maidens at grilled windows entertaining suitors, peasants dancing at festivals, brawls disrupting taverns. Many of these were executed in 12" X 18" formats so that 19th Century tourists could transport them back to England or America as souvenirs. One whole gallery was devoted to seascapes, several of them large format. The most technically impressive paintings showed interior scenes, such as altar boys in a cathedral, with remarkably rendered silks and brodades.

    Review of: Jardin Botanico Historico La Concepcion
    Worth visiting - great garden and views!!
    They had a cafeteria which served very large servings, the 5€ sandwiches and the 5€ gazpacho was great and very big! The garden was fantastic we didn’t have time to explore all, this is definitely a place you won’t want to miss! The garden animals view it was so exotic and so fantastic! Because they let the plant grow some what Wilde it gave the garden a very cool and unique botanical garden! No matter age or interest, you won’t be disappointed by this. The art pieces was a nice added detail to the garden!

    Can’t go wrong
    For just 1.50€ A head you really can’t go wrong with this first class museum that was beautifully updated in 2016(?). Great archeological section. Shame the cafe was closed!

    Love this park
    Great to walk through with lots of shade for a rest from the heat.
    Amazing trees and plants from around the world, with beautiful colours and smells. Great to walk through from Marina to the Old town.

    Review of: Santuario de la Victoria
    A smaller local church well worth the visit.
    We rented an AirBnb about two short blocks from the Santuario de la Victoria. I visited it many times, stopping to pray twice.
