Andalusia Day 2 - Málaga and Rincón de la Victoria

In order to get oriented, we decided to head into Málaga and visit the Tourism Office.  We have no wifi at the house, so we need to rely on old fashion maps and guides to help us get around.  The tourist office was very small and didn't have that much information, but enough to get us started.  We were planning on visiting the caves in Nerja, but due to lack of time, we opted to visit the caves in Rincón de la Victoria instead as they were just 20min outside of Málaga.

La Cueva del Tesoro is one of only 3 marine caves in the world, and the only one in Europe.  They have found remains and cave drawings that date back from the bronze age.  It is called the Cave of the Treasure because it was believed that Arabs hid a great treasure there in the 12th century.  Many have searched for the treasure, but to this date, it has not been found.  Treasure or not, it was a pretty cool cave to visit.  Our pictures really don't do it justice.

After visiting the caves, we headed back to Málaga to have some dinner and explore the city a little more.  The streets were really buzzing with people, street performers and venders.  We took a quick look at the main cathedral in Málaga and enjoyed the Christmas lights and outdoor market.
