Marbella has more to offer than beach and shopping. The old town of Marbella in particular invites you to take a stroll.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Whitewashed houses stand in the old town of Marbella. If you stroll along the narrow streets here, you will discover many a hidden shop and restaurant and will certainly pass the famous Orange Square.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parque de la Constituci\u00f3n<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The rather small and inconspicuous Parque de la Constituci\u00f3n is located directly on the beach promenade. Until about 1950, the grounds belonged to a private estate, but today it is open to everyone free of charge. In addition to a caf\u00e9 and a children’s playground, the city’s open-air theatre is also located here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the summer, there are regular events here. In March, everything was still closed here and so all we could do was look through the door to see something of the theatre. The special highlight of the park is an observatory where demonstrations and sky observations are offered regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Avenida del Mar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Avenida del Mar connects Marbella’s waterfront promenade with the Alameda Park. Since it was renovated in 1990, the street is one of the most magnificent streets in the city. Even during rain and sandstorms, the street was able to impress me. The floor is covered with marble, there are arcades and landscaped flower beds. Numerous restaurants and caf\u00e9s are located at the edge of the pedestrian zone. When everything is planted here in summer and the sun is shining, the Avenida des Mar certainly looks even more impressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I find the bronze sculptures on display here particularly impressive. Salvador Dal\u00ed created them and placed them there. The very large works of the artist invite you to the free open-air exhibition. Where else in the world can you see such surreal works by the artist on a street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
