Take a Trip Back in Time… Visit the Medieval Market in Fuengirola’s Sohail Castle

Medieval Market at Sohail Castle in FuengirolaIn previous years it has managed to attract over 90.000 visitors and this year, organisers are hoping to improve upon this impressive figure. We’re referring to the Medieval Market which is taking place in Fuengirola’s Sohail Castle from Wednesday 13th September until  Sunday the 17th September. 

This is the 14th consecutive year that the event has been held and just goes to prove its success. So much so that it has now become one of the most important in Spain thanks, mainly, to its unique setting in an XIth century Muslim fortress(more…)

Travel Back in Time: Visit the Medieval Market in Benalmadena Port

Medieval Market

Sweets and Pastries...yuuuum!

One of this weekend’s highlights will be the Medieval Market which will take place at the Benalmadena Marina.

From tomorrow Friday 13th May – and until Sunday the 15th – tourists and locals who wonder down to Puerto Marina will feel like they have been transported to medieval times as they make their way around the Medieval Market which will be located in the large exhibition tent in the “Pueblo Marinero” area of the Marina.

A walk through the market will allow visitors to see artisans (my favourite are the ones who make sweets and pastries!), exhibition workshops, theatre groups, street performers and dancers, circus acts, jugglers, theatre for children, musical groups, snake charmers…the works!

There’s no doubt that the Medieval Market will provide a fun alternative for all the family this weekend. By the way…it’s free! 🙂
