A walk from the Roman Empire to Al-Andalus, knowing two of the most important monuments of Malaga: the Roman Theatre and the Alcazaba.
The perfect plan to complete your visit with the Free Tour of the Historic Center of Malaga, knowing all the secrets that houses one of the most important fortresses of Spain.
A Roman Theater at the foot of an Alcazaba.
It is undoubtedly a good example of the importance of our city over the centuries, right?
The Roman Theater is the first stop of this tour, specifically its interpretation center.
Here we will immerse ourselves in Malacca to know what life was like in the times of the Roman Empire.
We will visit its different rooms and tell you the incredible story of how the Roman Theater came to light unexpectedly in 1951.
You will be amazed!
Then we will leave the Empire to travel a few centuries to stand at the foot of one of the best preserved Muslim fortresses in Spain: the Alcazaba of Malaga.
We will walk from top to bottom to see its rooms: defense towers, dungeons, gardens, balconies and palaces.
Because yes, this fortress was also a palace, for the record.
It was built in 1057 by order of King Badis of Granada. And look at it, there it is still standing and shining since then.
We don't want to tell you anything ahead of time, but you should know that it was here that the Catholic Monarchs culminated the conquest of Malaga in 1487.
It was on (we assume a hot) August 19, a day we commemorate today with a Fair that has a day and a night version.
Is that all?
No way! There's much more.
You'll also learn what's so unusual about the popular neighborhood of La Coracha or the role of researcher Juan Temboury in the current appearance of the building, among other things.
