A symbol of Malaga's urban art and underground culture

Andalucia Tour ~ Malaga (Region) Thanks to a project initiated by the public, this central neighbourhood has become a symbol of urban art and underground culture in the city of Malaga. Its most notable feature is probably the large-scale graffiti art that covers some of its buildings. The murals include works by internationally renowned graffiti artists such as Obey and D*face. The area is ideal for exploring on foot and is very close to the main tourist areas of Malaga. The street is lined with independent local businesses with a strong sense of identity, as well as several arts and cultural centers, including private galleries, artists' studios, La Alameda Theater and the Center for Contemporary Art; many restaurants offering local, organic or gourmet food; and modern, functional and well-designed public spaces. The Made in Soho market takes place on the first Saturday of every month, with stalls selling design, crafts, art and audio-visual art, antiques and vintage items. Soho, or the Arts Quarter, came into being thanks to a project initiated by locals to reclaim the area, now supported by the local government and its planning department. Location: Near the Port of Malaga, north of the Alameda, the Heredia Marina, the Plaza del Mar and the Guadalmedina River. #2024TravelReview #SpainTravel #Andalucia
