Malaga's museums exert a magnetic pull on even the least curious visitor to the city. Here are some of the the highlights:

Make the pilgrimage to the Picasso Museum to see more than two hundred of the artist's early works, cubist period masterpieces and intriguing late works. Sculptures from clay and sheet metal and a fixation with musketeers bring you closer to the man behind the masterpieces. The collection is housed in the gleaming 16th century Buenavista Palace, which also presents contemporary exhibitions.
Another 16th century edifice, a Moorish palace, is home to the Museo Carmen Thyssen, a collection of Spanish and Andalucian art, including internationally renowned painters Ignacio zuloaga and Joaquin Sorolla y Bastida. The gallery paints a picture of Spain in the 19th century as a fiery place characterised by brawls, bullfights and flamenco.
Malaga's former tobacco factory has been transformed into a gallery space presenting vintage cars with vintage couture. It might sound a strange mix but the chronological curation draws fascinating links between stylistic epochs and the exhibits are easy on the eye.
