Malaga at Night and Return to Vineria Cervantes, Malaga, Spain
If Malaga is beautiful by day then it鈥檚 no less so at night when it seems to come to life. The morning is quiet and calm with few people around, but through the day life unfolds and by night, there is even dancing on the streets 鈥� literally!
