Malaga Cathedral

Paid a visit to the Malaga Cathedral which was built between 1528 and 1782. The architecture was stunning and I was in awe of the details at each and every corner of the cathedral. Entry is about 6€, and they have student prices, youth prices, senior prices and adult prices so do remember to bring your student card if you have:) I paid 9€ to climb to the roof of the cathedral. Please note that you can only do that with a guided tour which happens every hour. It’s about a 200-steps climb to the roof of the Cathedral but the steps and stairways are quite narrow hence I won’t recommend for those with any injuries or weak legs. Even if you don’t climb up to the roof, you can still admire the church for its beauty, size and architecture. #fallingforfall #tripblazers #urbanexplorer

Beautiful Catedral

#familytrips2024 Really beautiful and enormous Catedral located right in the center of the city of Malaga. If you don't want to or don't have time to go inside and up to its roof, it's still amazing to see it just from the outside! It's great architecture and people should come to see this. Very old and you can feel the experience. Our dream destination is to go to Hong Kong for my family trip as Hong Kong is paradise for food lovers, offering a wide variety of culinary delights. My family will enjoy it very much.

The post-60s Granny Goo traveled alone through Malaga, Europe

Granny Goo's 10th day of solo travel in Europe, 2/29 from Granada to Malaga, train AVANT 8935, 2h24m, walked 22443 steps. ⭐ Upon arrival in Malaga that day, visited the Malaga Picasso Museum (pictures 2-4) and the Cathedral (pictures 5-7).

The regular ticket price is 12 euros, but during the closure of the Picasso exhibit, the ticket is 9 euros. ⭐ The Malaga Cathedral ticket is a bit pricey at 10 euros. Coming out of the cathedral, it was already past six o'clock, and the sun was still shining brightly. Wandering aimlessly, stumbled upon the castle, the University of Malaga, the ancient Roman theater, the town hall, and the port. ⭐ The next day, traveled from Malaga to Ronda and back, and after returning from Ronda, climbed the castle (ALCAZABA) (pictures 9-10), strolled on the beach, citywalk 25000 steps. The castle is built on a hillside in the center of Malaga. The Malaga Castle is an outstanding representation of Islamic civilization, with many porches, towers, gardens, and courtyards full of Muslim charm. The view of the port and the city from the castle is breathtaking. ⭐ The Malaga beach is beautiful (pictures 12-14), but the sand is gray-black and coarse. Under the glow of the setting sun, many locals were relaxing and entertaining on the beach, some playing beach volleyball, others sitting around playing cards. ⭐⭐ Malaga (Málaga) is a small city located on the Costa del Sol in the Mediterranean, in southern Andalusia, Spain, with a population of less than 600,000, making it Spain's second-largest Mediterranean port.
