Exploring a narrow street with art, architecture and eye-catching styles 📷 Málaga - Spain

Malaga's historic city centre is a myriad of streets and backstreets where it's easy to get lost. But it's also a great place to explore and get lost.

The most fabulous thing about it is the possibility of turning into a street you don't know and finding places you haven't seen before and very good places.

Many of the most beautiful things are to be found in those little streets that are only a few metres long, but are home to treasures. Many of these little streets are very narrow and all of them are pedestrianised, so that you can stroll through them at your leisure.

The streets in Malaga are constantly changing their names because they are not very long in a straight line and when there is a fork in the road they change their name.

I like to explore new streets and find out what is in them and on this occasion I walked along the street called Beatas.

It is not very long, but I made some beautiful discoveries. On one side of the street there are many other small streets and I enjoyed exploring every corner.

In this street is the Museum of Music, which was closed at the time, but it was the first thing I saw when walking and walking I ended up in Beatas street.

Then I saw this place where you can eat fish, so typical here, and as Malaga is the city of art, you can't miss drawings and paintings in every space.

This is a beautiful drawing of the cathedral that was in that eating place.


20240806_181822.jpg


As the streets are very narrow, what I looked at most were the tall buildings, their windows, doors, balconies, decorations.

At a corner, or rather a crossroads, I came across this beautiful sculpture called The Bath of Diana by the sculptor José Seguiri.



20240806_181918.jpg


The most beautiful thing of all is that from whichever angle I looked at it I could see not only beauty but also different approaches and details.


20240806_181837.jpg


On the other side of the same sculpture you can see these animal heads from which I believe water is emerging, although at this moment it was not.


20240806_181925.jpg


Again I look up, as on many occasions, and admire those big old windows that I like so much. Spanish architecture fascinates me.


20240806_181942.jpg


The entrances to certain important buildings are highly decorated and the facades are always magnificent. You can tell it is a very old part of the city and yet well maintained.

Looking up I came to an antique shop called Los Remedios. A considerable amount of antique paintings were on the outside and some very amazing ones were in relief and looked like they were made of metal.


20240806_182030.jpg


Then this amount of antiques like vases, clocks, and miscellaneous items too old to spend a whole afternoon looking at. There were owls and I think they were made of silver. They were really beautiful.


20240806_182037.jpg


Opposite the antique house was this corner with this magnificent building, the design was impressive.

As I said, I was looking up, to the sides, windows, doors, to the sides looking at the streets that crossed the one I was walking on.

The balconies, the styles, the artistry of it all, the architecture, there was so much to see that you couldn't see it with your eyes. You would think that because it is a lost, narrow street there would be nothing to see and I found so much. Even the inside of the corridors of the buildings are decorated with beautiful flower pots.



20240806_182315.jpg


On one side I see this beautiful wooden door, all the doors in this street are like that, wooden and old.


20240806_182337.jpg

20240806_182359.jpg


I look up and the corner announces a bar called El Carpintero. Even the sign was artistic. It was closed but its little tables were already set up to receive people and above them balconies full of flowers.


20240806_182442.jpg

20240806_182439.jpg


I continued my walk, always admiring my surroundings and the decorated walls.

Until I arrived at a wine bar called Los Patios de Beatas. This place surprised me and very pleasantly.


20240806_182503.jpg

Not only its façade was beautiful with those decorations with flowers and lights on the entrance door, but also on its walls there were decorations alluding to the place. Even the menu where they presented their articles was artistic and rustic at the same time.

But what I liked the most were the tables that I will show you.

When I saw them I couldn't believe it, the tables had mosaics representing different landscapes and motifs of the city. There couldn't have been more art and for me that was phenomenal.

Take a good look at the details of each of these tables, it's wonderful.

They depicted the castle, the map of the city, the Mediterranean Sea and many other designs related to wine and grapes.


20240806_182749.jpg

20240806_182754.jpg


On this table the bunch of grapes is made with old coins, it's a beauty.


20240806_182637.jpg

20240806_182646.jpg


Just in front of this beautiful place there is a hotel called Alux, a boutique hotel. The door was open and seeing inside caught my attention. The employee invited me to see it and it was great. It also has another entrance where you can enjoy a good breakfast.

The decorations in the entrance, on the wall, all over the place, had a rustic style with macramé weavings and many handicrafts.


20240806_182543.jpg


But what struck me most was this table in the centre of the reception made from tree trunks, a marvel. I was grateful to be allowed to enter and take photographs.

Walking a little further on I also found a Venezuelan restaurant.

Its cute little tables, exterior and decorations showed the warmth of the place. One of the few, if not the first Venezuelan restaurant I have seen in the city and I loved it.


20240806_182939.jpg


20240806_182857.jpg


Even on the blackboard we can see what they offer to delight the customer.

Finishing the tour and leaving this street after it got even narrower, I ended up in another restaurant, a very elegant one.

It was the end of this wonderful street, full of beautiful surprises, art and pleasant places to look at.

I love exploring places like this, getting to know the city and discovering treasures along the way.

Thank you very much for joining me on this tour, best regards to all of you and see you next time.

Have you ever lost in the place?

The place is just like a wide museum full of arts that you can access free.😊 Thank you for the tour.😊

When I arrived six years ago I did get lost hahaha but I had the phone and I looked on the map and asked people, I don't get lost anymore hahaha thanks!!!!

When you described the place, and seeing the pathway, I would lost too.. Hahaha, I'm not good at direction.😄😄

You're welcome. 😊

I learned in the past, I worked in telephone sales and I had to learn the map!!! hahahahaha

The application of your learning was clearly shown. 😁

🤣🤣🤣🤣

I love the tours you give us around your beautiful city, there are beautiful places to see.
Your photographs are beautiful @avdesing

And I love to bring you the places where I walk, I love to show you the city! Thank you!💗

I love these narrow streets in harmony with exquisite architecture, if we add street art it is even more interesting and beautiful. I have some friends in Malaga, I hope to go one day and meet :)

Lovely shots @avdesing friend! Have a wonderful day ✨

!discovery shots

There are many streets like this and I started to walk them and I love them! I find beautiful things! Thank you very much!

Have a great day!😃

How are you dear friend @avdesing good morning
I always enjoy the photographs you show us of the streets of your city, I love the architecture, the details of its facades, the ironwork of the properties.
What eye-catching tables, I love the beautiful works of art on them.
Thank you very much for sharing these beautiful shots

Discovering things like this is what motivates me every day to travel more and more and I love it! Thank you very much always!😃

Ame las canillas con cabeza de animal jajajajajajajaja super originales!!!!! Que bello paseo mi reina

Yo las mesas con arte! Fascinada!!!

Tienes un encanto natural para llevarnos de paseo y mostrarnos los detalles más hermosos a tu manera, y de forma muy especial.
Las calles estrechas son solo para personas, ¿verdad?
La limpieza y orden de todas es impresionante, tal vez me choque debido a que en mi país te encuentras un desastre en esos aspectos, creo que no hay que ser pobres para justificar ciertos malos hábitos sociales.
La fuente de Diana,divina...la mesa de centro en el hotel espectacular, y las monedas antiguas adornando la mesa en ¿un racimos de uvas? cuanta imaginación.
Es fácil perderse entre tantas simetrías arquitectónicas.

En el centro histórico de la Habana hay muchos edificios parecidos, pero las calles con esos mosaicos solo allí.

Gracias @avdesing!
🌹

Muchas gracias! Mi mejor amiga me dice lo mismo... pero es mi amiga jajaja

Si esas calles son sólo para personas, sólo las principales del casco histórico para coches y de vez en cuando y despacio.

Eso mismo que remarcas son las tres cosas que más me gustaron a mi, coincidimos!!

Muchas gracias @adaluna1973 💗

A tí querida, siempre tan amable y bonita.

🌹

Un fuerte abrazo!

I really like these art-inspired streets. So much beauty all around. Some of it can be haunting even in a nice way.

And at night they become mysterious!!!! Thank you very much!😃

I hope those pots on the balcony are securely fastened, because whoever gets hit on the head by one of those pots will have to find a remedy for the blow, and not just in an antique shop.

So far I have not seen any of them fall.... Thank goodness! And when a façade is... bad or dangerous, the fire brigade surrounds the area until it is fixed... I have seen it in historical buildings.

I loved the antique shop!

🤣 ay dios mio, ya no puedo más... me voy a dormir.

Creí recién te levantabas jajajaja

That sculpture is really impressive! Love the details :)

Whenever I find a sculpture I love it, and more of this beauty. Thank you very much!💗

Have a lovely weekend 🤗

You too! Have a great weekend!😃

These gorgeous narrow, cobblestone-paved streets make me think of a hallway of two strings of houses. I've read that Malaga is a special city and I think so even more after seeing your photos.
Congratulations on the post!

I am super in love with the city! Thank you so much!!!💗

What a pleasure!

Wow! Creo que Málaga tiene mucho que ofrecer 🤩 Mucho arte, artesanía, gastronomía, en fin, es una ciudad que me encantaría visitar algún día. Viendo tu post me sentí como cuando lees una revista.... ¡Hermosas fotos! ✨

Sabes que me han dicho eso también, que escribo de una manera particular.... no me doy cuenta jajaja
