Stop 1
Plaza de la Merced is a public square located in the barrio La Merced in central Málaga, Spain.
The plaza has been a part of the city since the city of Málaga's Roman era, and has been operating as a town market place since at least the fifteenth century.
2
Granada Street is a pedestrian street in the historic center of Malaga. It is one of the main roads of the old madina of Malaga, where the main palace houses of the time were settled.
3
Plaza de Toros Vieja is a neighborhood that belongs to the Centro district of the Andalusian city of Malaga, Spain. The origin of the name of the neighborhood is due to the street of the same name, which crosses it in a northwest-southeast direction, from Salitre street to the corridor of the Matadero. This street in turn was so named because in its vicinity was the first bullring in Malaga, which due to its proximity to the Convent of Carmen was called Plaza de Toros del Carmen.
4
The Port of Málaga is an international seaport located in the city of Málaga in southern Spain, on the Costa del Sol coast of the Mediterranean. It is the oldest continuously-operated port in Spain and one of the oldest in the Mediterranean.
Principal port activities include cruise shipping and the importation of containerised manufactured products, break bulk and vehicles. A small fishing fleet also operates from the port.

Stop 5
The Plaza de la Marina is a square in the Centro district of the city of Malaga, Spain. It constitutes one of the neuralgic points of the city, since two important axes cross here: the Alameda Principal and the Paseo del Parque with some of the busiest streets of the historic center, such as Molina Lario street, and with the main access to the Port of Malaga.
