Torremolinos Malaga Spain Holiday
The old historic centre of Málaga reaches the harbour to the south. In the north it is surrounded by mountains, the Montes de Málaga (part of the Baetic Cordillera) lying in the southern base of the Axarquía hills, and two rivers, the Guadalmedina – the historic center is located on its left bank– and the Guadalhorce, which flows west of the city into the Mediterranean, in the Churriana district.
View of the old Alcazaba
The Moors left posterity the dominating presence of the Castle of Gibralfaro, which is connected to the Alcazaba, the lower fortress and royal residence. Both were built during the Taifa period (11th century) and extended during the Nasrid period (13th and 14th centuries). The Alcazaba stands on a hill within the city. Originally, it defended the city from the incursions of pirates. Later, in the 11th century, it was completely rebuilt by the Hammudid dynasty.[22] Occupying the eastern hillside that rises from the sea and overlooks the city, the Alcazaba was surrounded by palms and pine trees.
Like many of the military fortifications that were constructed in Islamic Spain, the Alcazaba of Málaga featured a quadrangular plan. It was protected by an outer and inner wall, both supported by rectangular towers, between which a covered walkway led up the slope to the Gibralfaro (this was the only exchange between the two sites). Due to its rough and awkward hillside topography, corridors throughout the site provided a means of communications for administrative and defensive operations, also affording privacy to the palatial residential quarters.
The entrance of the complex featured a grand tower that led into a sophisticated double bent entrance. After passing through several gates, open yards with beautiful gardens of pine and eucalyptus trees, and the inner wall through the Puerta de Granada, one finds the 11th- and 14th-century Governor's palace. It was organised around a central rectangular courtyard with a triple-arched gateway and some of the rooms have been preserved to this day. An open 11th-century mirador (belvedere) to the south of this area affords views of the gardens and sea below. Measuring 2.5 square metres (27 square feet), this small structure highlighted scalloped, five-lobed arches. To the north of this area were a waterwheel and a Cyclopean well (penetrating forty metres or 130 feet below ground), a hammam, workshops and the monumental Puerta de la Torre del Homenaje, the northernmost point of the inner walls. Directly beyond was the passage to the Gibralfaro above.
The Church of Santiago (Saint James) is an example of Gothic vernacular Mudéjar, the hybrid style that evolved after the Reconquista incorporating elements from both Christian and Islamic tradition. Also from the period is the Iglesia del Sagrario, which was built on the site of the old mosque immediately after the city fell to Christian troops. It boasts a richly ornamented portal in the Isabeline-Gothic style, unique in the city.
The Cathedral and the Episcopal Palace were planned with Renaissance architectural ideals but there was a shortfall of building funds and they were finished in Baroque style.
The Basílica y Real Santuario de Santa María de la Victoria, built in the late 17th century, has a chapel in which the vertical volume is filled with elaborate Baroque plasterwork.
La Concepción, botanical and historical garden.

Abre la Colección del Museo Ruso, San Petersburgo / Málaga

Places to see in ( Andalusia - Spain ) La Farola
Places to see in ( Andalusia - Spain ) La Farola
La Farola, besides being one of the two Spanish lighthouses having a feminine name, is a recurring element in Málaga's iconography. Much loved by the city's inhabitants, they started building it in the 19th century and it was finished in 1816, in the time of Ferdinand VII (1784 – 1833).
It has undergone several renovations during its history. The first was after the damage caused by the 1884 earthquake. Improvement work was undertaken in 1885 and a new device fitted to improve the light that guided seamen at night. The lighthouse keeper's house was enlarged in 1909.
During the Civil War, although orders were given to turn off the light and paint the building to make it more difficult to see, it was damaged and needed repairing.
It can be found on the promenade of the same name, in the Malagueta district between the Port of Málaga and Paseo Marítimo Ciudad de Melilla .The expansion of the port and the transformation of Muelle Uno (Pier One) are two reasons not to miss this interesting tourist location.
Málaga 24h TV - Málaga contrata las obras para instalar ascensores en medio centenar de edificios
El Instituto Municipal de la Vivienda ha contratado las obras para poner en marcha el plan de ascensores que aprobó el verano del año pasado dentro de un acuerdo con el PSOE para desbloquear la financiación de las obras del Polo Digital en Tabacalera.
El servicio se lo ha llevado la unión de empresas formada por Helopav-Grupo Ferson 05 y Fain Ascensores.
Según la información remitida por el Consistorio, la actuación va a suponer una inversión de dos millones de euros entre lo que queda de año y el que viene, si bien la oferta contratada presenta una baja del 38,5%, lo que supondrá mayores unidades de obra.
El IMV calcula que estas ayudas, de cuya gestión se encarga la Oficina de Rehabilitación del Ayuntamiento, podrán beneficiar a unos cincuenta edificios.
El porcentaje mínimo de subvención será el 50% del coste, si bien la ayuda se incrementará en función de las rentas disponibles de los propietarios.
English: The Municipal Housing Institute has contracted the work to implement the plan approved lifts the summer of last year in an agreement with the PSOE to unlock the financing of the works of Digital Pole in Tabacalera.
The service has taken the joint venture formed by Helopav-Group Lifts Ferson 05 and Fain.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Málaga (, Spanish: [ˈmalaɣa]) is a municipality, capital of the Province of Málaga, in the Autonomous Community of Andalusia, Spain. With a population of 569,130 in 2015, it is the second-most populous city of Andalusia and the sixth-largest in Spain. The southernmost large city in Europe, it lies on the Costa del Sol (Coast of the Sun) of the Mediterranean, about 100 kilometres (62.14 miles) east of the Strait of Gibraltar and about 130 km (80.78 mi) north of Africa.
Málaga's history spans about 2,800 years, making it one of the oldest cities in the world. It was founded by the Phoenicians as Malaka about 770 BC, and from the 6th century BC was under the hegemony of Ancient Carthage. Then, from 218 BC, it was ruled by the Roman Republic and later the Roman Empire as Malaca (Latin). After the fall of the empire and the end of Visigothic rule, it was under Islamic rule as Mālaqah (مالقة) for 800 years, but in 1487, the Crown of Castille gained control after the Reconquista. The archaeological remains and monuments from the Phoenician, Roman, Arabic and Christian eras make the historic center of the city an open museum, displaying its history of nearly 3,000 years.
This important cultural infrastructure and the artistic heritage have culminated in the nomination of Málaga as a candidate for the 2016 European Capital of Culture.
The painter and sculptor Pablo Picasso, Hebrew poet and Jewish philosopher Solomon Ibn Gabirol and the actor Antonio Banderas were born in Málaga. The magnum opus of Cuban composer Ernesto Lecuona, Malagueña, is named after the music of this region of Spain.
The most important business sectors in Málaga are tourism, construction and technology services, but other sectors such as transportation and logistics are beginning to expand. The Andalusia Technology Park (PTA), located in Málaga, has enjoyed significant growth since its inauguration in 1992. Málaga is the main economic and financial centre of southern Spain, home of the region's largest bank, Unicaja, and the fourth-ranking city in economic activity in Spain behind Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia.

Español: El Ayuntamiento quiere reactivar la construcción de aparcamientos de promoción municipal en la ciudad, según ha publicado diario SUR.
Tras varios años en los que la crisis económica ha frenado el ritmo de ejecución de estacionamientos, a tenor del escaso nivel de ventas de las plazas que se terminaban de construir, la Sociedad Municipal de Aparcamientos y Servicio trabaja ya en el desarrollo de un plan estratégico de aparcamientos para la ciudad en el que se contemplan nuevas instalaciones para los 11 distritos de la ciudad, incluido el casco antiguo.
Un buen número de los proyectos planteados por SMASSA para los próximos años serían de carácter mixto, es decir, albergarían plazas en propiedad de residentes y también de rotación.
Entre las actuaciones más destacadas está el futuro parking bajo la manzana del antiguo cine Astoria, en la plaza de la Merced, la ampliación del aparcamiento de la plaza de la Marina, y construir nuevos en el solar de la calle Gigantes (junto a Carretería), la plaza Miguel de los Reyes, en Lagunillas, la plaza del Santuario de la Victoria, el paseo Ciudad de Melilla y la zona del Muelle de Heredia, entre otros muchos sitios analizados en la zona del Centro.

NOTICIA - Cassá arremete contra Club Málaga Valley y PTA - Málaga24h

Español:
La desaparición del Club Málaga Valley. Esa será la propuesta del portavoz de Ciudadanos en el Ayuntamiento de la capital, Juan Cassá, asegurando que no cree nada en esa iniciativa, liderada por el abogado Javier Cremades y financiada por el consistorio malagueño.Pero el concejal de la formación naranja no sólo cuestiona este foro, sino también equipamientos ya asentados como el Parque Tecnológico de Andalucía (PTA), del que ha dicho que no sirve para nada y que es una chapuza de la Junta de Andalucía.
A juicio de Cassá, cuya formación posibilitó la investidura del alcalde, Francisco de la Torre o sabe muy poco o nada de lo que son las nuevas tecnologías y la inversión para generar empleo, y asegura que Con el Málaga Valley lo único que hemos hecho ha sido pulirnos 500.000 euros porque no ha salido ni un proyecto.
Frente al Parque Tecnológico, que incide como decíamos en que es una chapuza, ya que se han hecho edificios sin dotarlos ni de fibra óptica, propone un plan de innovación tecnológica para atraer a Málaga, procedentes de toda Europa, a empresas que apuesten por la innovación, y al mismo tiempo impulsar al emprendedor local.
El líder de Ciudadanos en Málaga también se ha mostrado muy crítico con el polémico Polo de Contenidos Digitales, situado en la antigua Tabacalera, un proyecto impulsado por el equipo de gobierno 'popular', que finalmente salió adelante el pasado mes de julio tras un simbólico acuerdo entre PP y PSOE. Al respecto, ha calificado la actuación del alcalde de irresponsable, y a la del PSOE de oportunista, y considera lamentable que De la Torre diera luz verde a un proyecto que no tiene viabilidad con la única excusa de no perder unos fondos europeos.

According to Cass, whose training enabled the investiture of the mayor, Francisco de la Torre or know little or nothing of what the new technologies and investment to create jobs and that With all that Malaga Valley we have done is 500,000 euros polish us because it has not come or a project.
Facing the Technology Park, as mentioned incident that was sloppy, and buildings that have been made without providing them or fiber optic, proposes a plan of technological innovation to attract Málaga, from across Europe, for companies that are committed to innovation, while promoting local entrepreneurship.
The leader of Citizens in Malaga has also been highly critical of the controversial Digital Content Polo, located in the old Tabacalera, a project promoted by the team of 'popular' government, which finally went ahead last July after a symbolic agreement between PP and PSOE. In this regard, he has described the performance of the mayor of irresponsible and opportunistic PSOE and believes regrettable that De la Torre gave the green light to a project that is not viable with the only excuse for not losing a European funds .
