In the Centro Histórico you will find a mix of Malagueños and tourists; as a result, it is always pleasantly crowded.
If you want to get into the heart of Málaga, the Centro Histórico is the place to be. Here, as the name suggests, much of the city's history is still visible. Various peoples have left their traces here, including the Romans and the Moors. In the historic centre you will find Málaga's most famous sights, such as the Catedral Nuestra Señora de la Encarnación, the Alcazaba fortress and the Teatro Romano. Besides these highlights, you can also enjoy the lively hustle and bustle that swarms through the streets every day, past the many pavement cafés that never seem to close.
