Rent a car: Málaga and its sights

• Catedral de Málaga: The magnificent domed ceiling of Málaga’s cathedral soars 40 metres into the air. Construction of this colossal church started in the 16th century; it was an epic project that spanned over 200 years. Even today, one of its two bell towers stands incomplete giving rise to the cathedral’s well-known nickname 'La Manquita' meaning the one-armed lady. Climb up the 200 steps of the bell tower for stunning views of Málaga’s coastline. And don't miss Patio de los Naranjos, a small patio in the cathedral with fragrant orange trees. Additionally, the cathedral houses 15 chapels that are adorned with gorgeous 18th century art and has a museum which houses various religious items from the last 500 years.

• Alcazaba: Málaga’s Alcazaba is a palace which dates back to the 11th century Moorish period. The entrance of this fortress is next to a Roman amphitheatre. There is a small archaeological museum in Alcazaba situated within the former servant’s section of the Nazari palace. Lines of orange trees, towering palm trees, sweet-smelling jasmine bushes and crimson bougainvillea amidst bubbling fountains add a picturesque beauty to the palace courtyards. To rent a car in Málaga means you can easily drive up the hill to reach this fortification as well as the Castillo de Gibralfaro, even farther up.
