Neighborhoods in Málaga

Soho Málaga is the city's self-proclaimed 'arts district', a grid of streets south of the Alameda Principal transformed by large-scale murals from international street artists. The MAUS (Málaga Arte Urbano Soho) project turned blank walls into an open-air gallery.

El Palo is a traditional fishermen's quarter east of Pedregalejo, considered the spiritual home of Málaga's iconic espeto de sardinas tradition. It retains a working-class, authentic Malagueño character.

Pedregalejo is a former fishing village east of the city centre that retains its low-rise Mediterranean character. It is renowned for its beachfront chiringuitos serving some of the freshest seafood in Málaga, particularly espeto de sardinas.
