Malaga Cruise Port

The Port of Málaga is one of the oldest in the Mediterranean and a strategic hub on the southern coast of Spain. It features modern cruise facilities and a prime location just steps from the city's historic centre. The port handles a mix of cruise, cargo, and recreational traffic, blending seamlessly with Málaga's urban and cultural landscape.

Palace of the Counts of Frigiliana

The Palace of the Counts of Frigiliana, known as El Ingenio, is a 16th-century Renaissance mansion and home to Europe's only traditional sugar cane syrup factory. Its façade features Moorish stones and geometric decorative paintings. Nearby, the Casa del Apero houses the Tourist Office, the library, and the Archaeological Museum. The Church of San Antonio, built in the 17th century, is the town's main religious landmark, in a refined Renaissance style.
3

Reales Pósitos

Built in 1767 as a grain silo, the Reales Pósitos now house private residences. The only preserved element from the original structure is the main façade with its distinct arcades—a reminder of Frigiliana's agricultural past.
4

Plaza de las Tres Culturas

This square honours the historic coexistence of Muslims, Jews, and Christians. Every last weekend of August, it hosts the Frigiliana Three Cultures Festival—an event full of music, food, workshops, exhibitions, performances, and cultural activities. It has been officially recognised as a festival of Tourist Singularity in the province.

Frigiliana, in the Axarquía region, is considered one of the most beautiful villages in Spain. Surrounded by the Sierras of Tejeda, Almijara and Alhama Natural Park, it's ideal for hiking and nature lovers. Its Moorish old town, with narrow alleys and whitewashed houses, preserves the purest Arab-influenced architecture and was awarded Spain's First National Prize for Town Beautification in 1982.
