Málaga entre los 52 destinos mundiales favoritos del New York Times


El periódico habla de Marbella y de la tradición playera de la Costa del Sol, pero con una aclaración: la capital de la provincia, el lugar donde nació Pablo Picasso, es ahora, además, un gran centro cultural. Recomiendan, por ello, el museo dedicado al genial pintor; el centro Pompidou, la nueva sucursal del Museo Estatal Ruso de San Petersburgo y el Museo Carmen Thyssen, con alrededor de 250 obras de la colección de la baronesa Thyssen-Bornemisza.

As home to touristy seaside cities like Marbella, the province of Málaga, part of the Andalusia region, is a popular beach destination. The eponymous capital city, however, is now a center of culture. The birthplace of Picasso and home to a namesake museum full of works donated by his family, Málaga has recently seen three major museums open. The most significant is a five-year pop-up of the Centre Pompidou, costing upward of $8 million, housed in a futuristic building on the waterfront and displaying a changing selection of 20th- and 21st-century paintings by artists like Frida Kahlo and Marc Chagall. There’s also a new branch of the St. Petersburg State Russian Museum with a collection of works by some of Russia’s most notable artists and the Carmen Thyssen Museum, featuring around 250 works from Baroness Thyssen-Bornemisza’s collection of past and present art world masters, including Jeff Koons. Getting to Málaga to explore this new side of the city is easier than ever: Delta now has seasonal flights into the local airport from New York City, and there are new high-speed train routes linking it to Madrid and Barcelona.
