Castillo de Gibralfaro Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The Gibralfaro Castle was built in the fourteenth century to accommodate the army to protect the castle of Malaga. Today it is one of the most popular places of interest in Malaga. Standing on its ramparts, you can see a beautiful and sultry panorama of Malaga, and you can also enter its cultural center to learn about its history. It takes its name from the lighthouse on the top floor (Jabal-Faruk, Hill of Lighthouses). Although it was the Phoenicians and Romans who started to establish settlements here, in 1340 the Nasr king YusufI (Yusuf I) turned the place into a castle.

Absolutely stunning views and mesmerisinggreat location for all types of people to enjoy and take in the beauty of southern spain
The castle is very beautiful, although it has been rebuilt, it is still very simple. Very slow pace of life. And the strong Mediterranean style makes people just want to stop and enjoy this romantic Mediterranean scenery.
Close to the Atlantic coast, the spring is warm and humid, and the climate is suitable. The most lively Holy Week and April festivals are in this time period, and you can feel the joy of the traditional Seville festivals.
This Castle should be exactly called Alkasawa Castle, or Malaga Castle, located on Mount Hill Brafalo, which is a military castle with strong Arabic style. Sunday afternoon free tour. Standing on the viewing platform at the top of the castle, you can overlook the whole city and the harbour.
