Sunny Málaga
Hello!
Today
we continue with my trip to Spain. During our stay in Granada, my friends and I
visited two other cities: Málaga and Córdoba. Today
I would like to tell you something more about our trip to Málaga.
Let's
see some information about this city:
Málaga
is the capital of the Province of Malaga, in the Autonomous Community of
Andalusia, Spain. With a population of 569,130 it is the second-most populous
city of Andalusia and the sixth-largest in Spain. The southernmost large city
in Europe, it lies on the Costa del Sol (Coast of the Sun), about 100 kilometers
east of the Strait of Gibraltar and about 130 km north of Africa.
Málaga
is about 125 km from Granada so we decided to go to see this city in our rental
car. The trip was not so long, rather interesting because despite going on a
highway we did not stop seeing olive trees everywhere (and what can be more
typical in the south of Spain?).
The
first thing that surprised us when we arrived in Malaga was the weather. The
distance from Granada is not very big but the temperature changed significantly.
While in Granada people wore coats and umbrellas, in Málaga you could still
walk around the port, near the sea in short sleeves or with a very thin
sweater.
We
really liked that summer feeling because in Poland we cannot count on
temperatures like that either. It is hard to believe that while we are going
through the cold, in other parts of the world people are sunbathing (and you do
not have to go to Africa to find them. You just need to get to some places in
southern Spain).
In
Málaga we joined a tour that revolved around the history of the city and of
Picasso. Then we saw some of the most important sites in the city and the rest
of the time we spent strolling through the beautiful streets of this city.
Malaga has a lot to offer. For me it is a very interesting place to live. The
weather is very nice, the city is large and quite developed, Málaga has many green
spaces and parks and access to the beach .. Can you ask for more?
As
you can see, Málaga has impressed me a lot. I do not want to compare this city
with Granada because honestly, that is not possible. These are two very
different cities, but both are interesting and worth visiting.
Love,
Natalia
