Built in the 1300s to protect the Alcazaba and house troops, Gibralfaro Castle still has walkable ramparts with some of the best views over Malaga, the port, and the coastline. Inside, there’s a small military museum. The name comes from Jabal-Faruk, meaning 'hill of the lighthouse' in Arabic. The castle was also the site of a long siege in 1487, when Catholic forces took the city from the Moors.

If you happen to be in the capital city during your stay, do not miss the National Museum's collection of artefacts offering insight into Maldivian (at times turbulent) history. Interestingly, the museum building was designed and given to the island nation by China.
