Málaga-
seems at first an uninviting place. It's the second city of the south (after
Sevilla), with a population of half a million, and is also one of the poorest:
official unemployment figures for the area estimate the jobless at one
in four of the workforce. Yet though many people get no further than the
train or bus stations, and though the clusters of high-rises look pretty
grim as you approach, it has its attractions. The elegant central zone
has a number of interesting churches and museums, not to mention the birthplace
of Picasso and the new Picasso Museum, housing an important collection
of works by Málaga's most famous son. Around the old fishing villages
of El Palo and Pedregalejo, now absorbed into the suburbs, are a series
of small beaches and a paseo lined with some of the best fish and seafood
cafés in the province.....
