Too often overlooked by discerning travellers, Málaga is one of Spain's most delightful destinations. It's a city steeped in history stretching back millennia, the centre of a centuries-old wine region, home to dozens of museums and galleries, full of beautiful buildings and gardens, and a sought-after destination for foodies. With excellent transport links, it also makes the perfect base from which to explore Southern Andalusia.

This guide is far more than a list of bars, restaurants and museums. Written to be used alongside your mobile, this book uses QR codes and an online map to link with your smartphone. Over hundreds of pages, it explores Málaga's history, gastronomy, viticulture, language, religion, arts, celebrations, transport, politics and culture. It also contains information about the Province of Málaga - from the well-worn charms of Marbella to the delights of Romantic Ronda.
