Christmas is here. The decoration and the Christmas lighting embellish the streets over the world: from New York to London, Madrid or... Malaga. Did you know that the capital of the Costa del Sol has been an inspiration for this year’s New York’s lighting theme? Find out why.
A tour of Malaga's Christmas lights
One of the biggest Christmas attractions every year is the lighting of Malaga, which this year begins on the 24th of November, with its maximum splendor in Larios Street. A gigantic dome of twinkling lights and stars covers the most emblematic artery of the city, creating spectacular visual effects. As if it were a fantasy sky, the artistic illumination continues to the Plaza de la Constitucion, overlooked by a huge glowing Christmas tree and colourful decorations.
Leaving Larios Street in the direction of the Port of Malaga, the lighting extends through the Alameda Principal and the Paseo del Parque until the Plaza de Torrijos. Lights that make up evocative figures, luminous trees and even a vegetable Nativity scene designed with flowers and plants decorate the urban landscape of this area of the capital of the Costa del Sol.
Malaga, the best city to enjoy Christmas
Malaga has been chosen before as the best Spanish city to spend Christmas. And this is not surprising. Its average temperature of 18 degrees and the varied entertainment offer is even more remarkable in these dates. All this make the Costa del Sol one of the ideal destinations to travel to at Christmas.
