The Feria de Malaga finished last sunday. As usual, a fireworks performance took place on Monday eve. Many people were viewing this wonderful spectacle and sadly said goodbye to seven days of fun and fair.
Just a few moments of the fireworks fair goodbye present:
In another post we speak about aubergines in honey, a delicious tapa that you can find in Pueblo Blanco, Torremolinos.
Yesterday I went to the same restaurant, and I took these pictures of the Torremolinos area.

If you want to do some shopping in Torremolinos you need to go to Calle San Miguel (San Miguel Street). It´s the commercial area, you can buy clothes, parfums, have a good cake and a little expensive in Lepanto or cheaper and very good ones in La Goyesca.

Malaga is offering these days its best touristic attraction. In the pic on the left a view of the main street, Calle Larios, garnished and ready to receive all visitors to the fair. If you wish to share a wine with friends dancing and tasting the famous ‘tapas‘, no doubt, the Feria del Centro is the best place. La feria del Centro is best visited from 14p.m. to 18p.m. Do not expect to find any shop or bank opened after midday.
In the next picture, the typical fair clothing.

Yesterday, I went to a Flamenco Show in the “Feria de Malaga”.
It´s a great moment to have a cup of very cold Cartojal (Malaga typical wine) and see the marvellous show for free.
Malaga is now in Fair. Many foreigners come to visit the crawded city center in the day-fair, also known as “feria del centro” but there is as well a night-fair (Real de la Feria). Tapas, Rebujito, Cartojal, horses, sevillanas, toros… The right place to spend a couple of days dancing, walking around the city and drinking the most popular malaga wines. The best hours to visit the Feria is from 14 p.m. to 18 p.m. but if you prefer to know the night side of this fiesta, do not forget visiting Real de la Feria from midnight, where fair continues until sunrise.

Visiting La Costa del Sol offers multiple choices from sitting in the sun nearby the Chiringuito to tourist routes along the inside villages. One of most beautiful of these villages is Yunquera. It is situated about 60 kilometers from Malaga and from Marbella. In the way to Ronda and in the heart of Sierra de las Nieves. A nice trip that really worths for its nice sights over La Costa del Sol and ancient morisques buildings, for example, la Torre Vigía.
Visit Sierra de las Nieves for an overview about the tourist development plans for this area.
Costa del Sol in one of the most known areas of Spain. When someone hears Costa del Sol, people think in Torremolinos, Marbella, Benalmadena, but in Malaga, there are another good areas, where you can find peace, relax, uncrowned beaches and cheap restaurants, we ate yesterday for 8 € per person, one of this fantastic areas is Torre del Mar.
Torre del Mar is beetween Rincon de la Victoria and Nerja.
One of the most simple and delicious dishes in Andalusia is aubergines in honey.
In “El Taller the Tapas”, a little restaurant in “Pueblo Blanco” (White Little Town), in the center of Torremolinos, you can tasting this fabulous recipe in a good atmosphere. Don´t miss it! The restaurant is cheap too.
For Goodness sakes, why anyone didn’t tell me that my dog can get a Graduate or Bachelor’s degree?. If yours haven’t got one yet, you should fill up the form and your dog can start to study in this unfamiliar school sited in Malaga (Andalusia).

The cathedral of Malaga was built between 1528 and 1764. Located in the center of the City, next to the Alcazaba de Malaga or the Roman Theather.
This monument is called “La Manquita”, (Litlte one armed woman) because one of its tower is not finished. There are two possible reasons for this, the money to complete the tower was used to help in American Revolutionary War or to finish a road in Antequera and Velez Malaga.
The interior has influences of the Renaissance and baroque styles.
