Gastronomic Charms & Magical Malaga

Browse a museum devoted entirely to Malaga-born Pablo Picasso before savoring a lunch of artistically prepared Andalusian dishes. You will first enjoy a panoramic view of the city from the Gibralfaro lookout, an introduction to Malaga that will be greatly enhanced by closer looks at landmarks such as the Alcazaba fortress on the way to the museum. There, you will see a remarkable collection of Picasso’s most representative works from various periods. They include masterpieces of Cubism, innovative ceramics and the artist’s personal take on the classics. Your lunch at the nearby restaurant Los Patios de Beatas will be just as memorable. Located in two back-to-back palazzo-style houses in the Old Quarter, the restaurant couldn’t be more atmospheric. Although the cuisine is classic Andalusian, the chef has reconceived it with unexpected garnishes, seasonings and accompaniments. You can expect the meal to be extraordinarily imaginative, much like the works of Picasso.
