Would you believe that Malaga has an average of 300 days of sunshine a year and is the hometown of both movie star Antonio Banderas and famous artist Pablo Picasso? Both statements are true. This city of 550,000 is located in the Andalucian region of southern Spain on the stretch of Spain's Mediterranean coast called the Costa del Sol. The Costa del Sol region is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. Each year, the number of tourists visiting Spain exceeds the country's population. Visitors come to Malaga for art, for sunshine, for nearby beaches, and for its history. The city dates back 3,000 years to the days of the Carthaginians and the Romans, and the Moorish history is very evident in one of Malaga's old Moorish fort, the Alcazaba.
