Immerse yourself in the culture of Andalucia during a stroll through the street markets in Malaga

You may already know that Malaga houses some picturesque Food Markets (if not, don’t waste time and go and read the post!). But the city is also filled with little and bigger street markets, where you can find almost everything you need. And when we say everything, we mean it. From veggies and fruits to clothes, from pans to small furniture, the street markets in Malaga provide the locals with everything they need, at a lower price than the shopping centres.

They usually take place in the morning, throughout the week depending on the area. And don’t worry if you’ve found something you like but you don’t have money on you. You can always ask for the next place where the stall is going to be and discover another street market of the city.

So, if you want to feel like a local, you should keep reading!
