Feria de Málaga


On Saturday, we went downtown to watch one of the first activities of this annual festival: a parade of horses and carriages that ended at the Sanctuary of Victory (we missed the midnight fireworks which marked the opening of the celebrations).

Here is a sample of what we saw:







Afterwards, we joined the crowds celebrating on the streets, dancing, chatting and having a drink. We enjoyed some "tinto de verano" (red wine diluted with mineral water) and met a Danish couple who's lived here for ten years.


The festival goes on for the rest of the week, so we'll surely join in the celebrations again!
