After exploring the hillside fortresses and bustling local market, Malaga had a few more beautiful churches and other attractions in its compact historic centre to explore.
Paseo del Parque is a leafy boulevard with grand buildings edged between the Alcazaba and the waterfront park. The Ayuntamiento was built in the 1910s with plenty of sculptures.

The Teatro Romano was built during Augustus' reign taking advantage of the sloping geography. During the 5th and 6th centuries, it became a cemetery and then the stones were recycled for the Alcazaba next door. It was rediscovered in 1951 during the Casa de Cultura's construction.
