SPAIN DAY 4- MALAGA

Malaga was the second area I served in. I was there for almost 6 months. I spent my only Christmas in Spain here in Malaga. It is a very large city with a little over a half a million people. It has such a rich history. It was fun to take JP back.

Fresh Fish Market in the center of the city.

So many choices.

JP was in heaven.....NOT!

The fruit and vegetables were so colorful!!

Cathedral of Malaga built between 1528 and 1782

Picasso Museum- has 155 works donated by members of Picasso's family. It was amazing!! No picture taking allowed inside.

Birthplace of Pablo Picasso. Yep, he was born in Malaga, Spain.

Roman Theatre dating back to the 2nd century with the Alcazaba above it.

Alcazaba of Malaga- The Alcazaba is a Moorish fortification built around the middle of the 11th century during the rule of King Badis to serve as the palace of the governors of the city. It is the best-preserved Alcazaba in Spain.

You can definitely see the Moorish influence in the architecture.

The grounds of the Alcazaba were incredible.
