Travel to Malaga, Spain * Malaga Travel Guide | S01E15

Curious Pavel - History meets Travel

Travel to Malaga, Spain! A walking tour with a guide in the Spanish city ► The Phoenicians first colonized the city of Malaga in 1000 B.C. and named it Malaka. The name of the city probably came from the Phoenician word 'Malac' which means 'to salt'. The Phoenicians settled along the river, which was the fish-salting center.

The beautiful city of Malaga offers around 330 sunny days in the year!

*Alcazaba*

Malaga was under Moorish rule for over 7 centuries. It is not a surprise that you can find an Alcazaba here. The word Alcazaba means a Moorish fortification in Spain and Portugal. It literally translates as a walled fortification in a city and this particular Alcazaba is the best-preserved Alcazaba in the whole of Spain!

Cathedrals can be found all around the world but that's not the case with Alcazabas. This is probably the most important landmark in Malaga. Curious Fact: This Alcazaba was never taken by force throughout history! Once, 7 000 Malagueños defended the castle against 80 000 Christians.
