Malaga Botanical Gardens (Jardín Botánico Histórico La Concepción) Tours and Activities

Covering more than 250,000 square meters of landscaped lands, the Malaga Botanical Gardens are home to hundreds of tropical and subtropical plants from around the globe. Palm trees, vines, water plants, bamboo trees, and citrus trees can be seen throughout the extensive grounds. As open air pathways pass through the greenery, fountains, ponds, and streams complete the scenery. With the many varieties of palm trees and waters, the gardens have an oasis feel. Its mirador still has some of the best views of Malaga and the surrounding sea.

Designed by aristocrats in the 19th century, it was often a meeting place for important figures in Malaga at that time. Artists, politicians, and high society often gathered there. For these reasons, the gardens have been officially recognized for their historical-artistic importance. They are often cited as one of the best botanical gardens in Europe, and are considered a must-stop on most city tours.
