Do Something Different: Unusual Attractions of Málaga
With flights to Málaga airport, transfers and accommodation all sorted, read on to learn about some of the lesser-known gems the city has to offer.
(firmenpresse) - As anyone who’s ever done it will know, travelling independently is a unique experience. Most importantly, you need to seek out and try new and unusual experiences. And while somewhere as well known as Spain’s Costa del Sol might seem a hard place to go off the beaten track, this article will show you a few lesser-known gems in the city of Málaga. Airport transfers, flights and hotels booked, take a step into the unknown …
A City of Surprises
For a long time, travellers to this area would go from their flights to Málaga airport transfers out of the city to resort towns up the coast. Although recent decades have seen increased interest in the city itself, there’s still a lot here that flies under the radar. With nearly 3,000 years of history, this is perhaps to be expected. Even the well-known museums and markets are often overlooked in the rush to get to the beach. Follow the tips in this article to see a different side to the town.
Cortijo Jurado
If you’re travelling alone, this famous haunted house is sure to get your spine tingling. Built sometime around 1830-40 and uninhabited since the early twentieth century, this building is shrouded in a thick coat of mystery. Many have reported seeing figures and hearing voices, and the house’s creepy reputation is often pointed to as a reason that it’s sat undeveloped for so long, with workers hired after 2000 to renovate it into a luxury hotel allegedly unable to keep working on the property.
Stories of satanic rituals and disappearances abound, and even those who have no time for ghosts or paranormal stories can’t help but be intrigued by a place invested with so much meaning by so many. Take the time to explore, if you dare.
Calle Pedro de Toledo
Turn left off the much busier Calle Císter to access this little-known pedestrian street. Through the drab and dreary opening and a little ways up, this off the beaten track path will take you to one of the oldest areas of the city centre. Cobbles adds texture below your feet as ochre facades bathe you in a warm dusky glow, and you eventually come to the square with the city’s famous Picasso museum.
Top Tip: Don’t eat before taking this trip – this often overlooked area has some of the city’s best restaurants, including the excellent Eboka. Eating here is also cheaper than more well-known tourist spots.
Jabega boats
Moving even further back into the city’s past now, we come across these unique living artefacts. Arriving with the Phoenicians nearly three millennia ago, these long, thin boats are still made according to traditional specifications. Though their method of fishing was recently banned for being too disruptive to the local wildlife, they’re still a sight to behold, stretching as long as eight metres from bow to stern, and narrowing to just two metres wide in the middle.
Top Tip: Keep an eye out for the Ancient Egyptian-style symbols carved into the wood, including a snake for wisdom and strength and an eye to watch for evil.
How to Get to Málaga
Flights from the UK are frequent and affordable, and Málaga airport transfers are the best way to get where you need to go in comfort and without fuss.
We hope this list has given you some ideas for lesser-known things to do in the city. Why not book your flight to Málaga airport, transfers and hotel, and get ready for an exciting holiday?
