The film continues with city shots from the ship to the fortified Alcazaba Palace (8th century) and then shots of the filmmaker and his companion during their tour of the fort.

Views of the port and the city from above.

Along the way we watch carriages as the car moves in the city and the film closes with careless moments of the couple on the Costa del Sol beach.

The city of Malaga was founded in the 8th century BC. by the Phoenicians, later passed to the Roman Empire until in 711 by the Moors it became an important urban center until 1487 when it was incorporated to the the Crown of Castile .

It flourished in the 19th century, and during the Spanish Civil War one of the saddest, bloodiest episodes of the war took place in Malaga. The massacre of thousands of residents fleeing the city from the Nationalists. Since 1960 it has been experiencing tourist boom.
