Malaga
Ancient and cosmopolitan Malaga still is one of the primary force in the Andalusian tourist industry, keeping alive its tradition of a welcoming and creative land. Maritime Malaga on the coast where winter never comes; and with a mountain vocation inland, where nature is displayed in all its splendour. White villages with their attractive architecture, wrapped in romantic legend, bring points of light into secluded valleys where life goes by peacefully. And from the peaks of the mountains you can watch the horizon until it becomes lost in the immense blue of the sea.

Where is malaga?

 

The province of Malaga is located in the south of the Mediterranean coast, between the provinces of Granada and Cadiz, and bordering the provinces of Cordoba and Seville in the north.The capital city is Málaga.

 

 

Malaga History

 

The history of this province has taken place between the sea and the mountains. Its capital was a witness to the economic and cultural boom of the western Mediterranean. The town known as Malaka by the Phoenicians was transformed into a prosperous commercial centre. After the Muslim invasion of the 8th century, the territory became Arabised and later became part of the Nasrid kingdom in Granada, when it underwent a new period of commercial and cultural prominence.

 

In the 19th century, the iron and steel industries of los Larios and the commercialisation of its wines provided significant economic development for the province.

 

After decades of economic downturn, Malaga underwent rapid economic growth in the second half of the 20th century, thanks to the tourist industry. Each year millions of citizens from all over the world choose this idyllic land to relax on its sun-drenched beaches, discover its rich architectural heritage or explore the wild beauty of its mountain geography.

Cueva del Tresoro - A real treasure in Andalucia - Located 15km outside Malaga´s capital, in the town of Rincón de la Victoria,La Cueva De Higuerón is one of the most spectacular geographical and historical landmarks not only in Andalucia but also in Spain. Once under the ocean, these caves – one of just three like them in the world – once formed underwater galleries complete with gorges and columns. No need to worry though, to visit the Cueva del Tresoro (Treasure Cave) nowadays you don’t have to put on your scuba diving equipment, for it has since emerged above the sea.

 

The only one of its kind in Europe, this incredible site sits between the towns of La Cala del Moral and Rincon de la Victoria high above the shore overlooking the Med. It has 500m of tunnels complete with remains of cave paintings, ceramics and items from the Neolithic stone industry as well as human and animal remains. There are stories of buried treasure, gold and precious stones, as well as tales of gnomes, fairies, mermaids, goblins and elves.

 

This may well sound inviting, but beware the ogres, giants, dragons and cyclops who are also rumoured to roam the caves searching for the fabulous hidden treasure, along with spirits who roam the labyrinthine rock corridor. Back down to the coast there is a seven mile stretch of promenade and beaches with many beach bars, restaurants and of course beautiful sunsets. Don’t miss out on the church in the high street, and if you are a golf fan, Anoreta Golf.

 

El Torcal Nature Reserve Antequera Malaga

El Torcal, Antequera, is one of the most beautifully rugged places in the world. Situated in the Sierra del Torcal mountain range, in the Andalusian province of Malaga, this national park provides a superb tourist attraction with its wonderful scenic views, its superb native flowers, and its unique, endemic wildlife. 

 

The El Torcal, Antequera region is formed predominantly from limestone which echoes back to the Jurassic period some 150 million years ago. The mountain range raised itself from the seabed during the time known as the tertiary era, when it rose to a height of over 1300 metres. Over the ensuing centuries a series of cracks, faults and fractures were created, some of which then eroded to form the characteristic alleyways that run between the rock-faces. Further natural erosion from water and ice then attacked the boulders, creating the stunning shapes that are associated with the area today.
