Marbella is a famous city and resort area on Spain’s Costa del Sol. There are the magnificent Sierra Blanca Mountains that act as the perfect backdrop to the sandy 27km long Mediterranean beaches, resorts, villas, and golf courses. Marbella is best known for its beaches, resorts, crazy nightlife, clubs and much more. This location has been very favourite among celebrities and millionaires alike who love exploring very posh places. The word ‘Marbella’ is derived from Spanish and it means ‘Beautiful Sea.’ Let’s take a look at what Marbella has to offer.
The oldest town of Marbella is a treat to the eyes with pedestrian streets that are floored with red tiles and nice paving. All buildings are topped with terra cotta roofs and are whitewashed. The lanes have a radiant look with beautiful and attractive flowers on both sides. The colour block houses are arranged on a corridor-like street. The old quarter is impeccably clean to the point where the tiles shine in the sun.
The oldest part of Marbella consists of a hidden Museum dedicated to engraving in Spanish. The location is a part of an experience. It is a 16th-century palace built for Alonso de Bazán, who was a naval commander. The Marbella museum is home to a collection of about 4000 engravings, lithographs, aquatints, xylographs, and multiple other designs created by other artists.
Marbella is abundant in its golf courses. There are about 32 Marbella golf courses within half an hour of the resort. Some include very posh and well-maintained ones, invitation-only clubs with plush greenery, and retreats. If you are a novice in the sport, then you need to go to Monte Paraiso. It is a must-visit place for all golf maniacs and the site is a visual treat with amazing lush.
