Costa del Sol information: TRADITIONAL MALAGA


Malaga traditional Fair

Around Marques de Larios, one of the main commercial arteries of the city. are a multitude of churches, museums, and convents. From the Plaza de la Constitucion, the Moorish Main Square - heart of the city since ancient times, we walk onwards and take in the Casa del Consulado, the Church of El Santo Cristo de la Salud - a perfect example of the Spanish mannerist style, the Church of Los Santos Martires - with valuable paintings and pieces in silverwork, and the 18th century Church of San Felipe Neri - with its beautiful awning of polychrome marbles.

THE ATARAZANAS
After visiting the Museum of Arts and Customs, situated in the old Meson de la Victoria, and the Church of San Juan, one of the four places of worship founded by the Catholic Monarchs following the re-conquest of the city in 1487, we find ourselves at the Central Market, built on the remains of the old Atarazanas, from which it took its name.
Our stroll through traditional Malaga ends at the Church of San to Domingo and the museums dedicoted to the religious brotherhoods of La Esperanza and La Expiracion.


CarMalaga.Com Tip: Malaga's Fair
The May Crosses, Corpus Christi, and the Night of San Juan are all festivities which mark the transition from Spring to Summer, and above all draw us nearer to the Feria of Malaga, in August which includes a floral tribute to the Patron Saint in the Sanctuary of Nuestra Señora de la Victoria. As well as the so-called daytime Feria, which takes place in the old centre, with parades of horses and coaches, there is also a bullfighting season with corridas in La Malagueta and the night-time Feria at the Real Cortijo de Torres. The Fiesta Mayor de Verdiales, held on the Day of Los santos Inocentes (the Spanish equivalent of April's fool day) in the Port Tower, at the Venta San Cayetano, marks the end of a week during which groups of verdiales parade around the city singing traditional songs. At the end of the week, there is a big event in which the groups compete against each other.
