Upon entering the downtown area of M\u00e1laga you quickly notice the contrast between old and new from the Moorish architecture, horse drawn carriages to the amazing cosmopolitan shopping area. M\u00e1laga is the birthplace of Pablo Picasso. There is truly an elegance and sophistication in M\u00e1laga from the architecture, museums, lush gardens, open air markets and the chic, stylish dress of the people of M\u00e1laga no matter what their age.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1022\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scenicrunway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Hilltop-View-of-Malaga.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1022\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1022\" title=\"Hilltop View of M\u00c3\u00a1laga\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scenicrunway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Hilltop-View-of-Malaga-300x210.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.scenicrunway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Hilltop-View-of-Malaga-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.scenicrunway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Hilltop-View-of-Malaga-1024x717.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.scenicrunway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Hilltop-View-of-Malaga.jpg 1237w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1022\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hilltop View of M\u00c3\u00a1laga<\/p><\/div>\n<p>For our day in port we decided to take a M\u00e1laga City Hop On Hop Off Tour on an open top double decker bus.

But we left with a great appreciation for the beauty and culture of the city of M\u00e1laga.<\/p>\n<p>When we arrived back to the ship the guests were treated to a special surprise, the cruise ship had arranged for local dancers to perform in the theatre onboard ship. The dancers selected passengers in the audience to accompany them on stage which made the performance even more entertaining.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>M\u00e1laga, Spain is located in the southern portion of Spain along the Mediterranean coast.
