2,800 years of history

Today we’re visiting one of Europe’s oldest cities, with more than 2,800 years of history. Málaga is said to have been founded by the Phoenicians in 770 BCE and its exceptional weather has made it the capital of tourism in Spain. Situated on the Costa Del Sol, an estimated six million tourists make the trip every year. If you can pull yourself away from the beautiful beaches, you’ll find yourself abound in historic architecture, museums and the local cuisine of espetos - specially skewered sardines, cooked over an open fire.
