A special scanner within the phone \u2013 which you can download for free \u2013 reads the code and automatically sends you to a website featuring the tourist attraction in question.<\/p>\n<p>The following attractions around Benalmadena have QR Codes which you can scan during your visit: Selwo Marina, Tivoli World, Sea Life, BenalmadenaButterflyPark, La Ni\u00f1ade Benalm\u00e1dena Statue, Puerto Marina, the Casa dela Cultura, Castillo de Colomares, the Pre-Columbian Museum, PalomaPark, Santa Ana Beach and Bil-Bil Castle. There are plans to install more QR Codes in the near future.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re so inspired by this initiative that we\u2019re already planning to start using QR Codes around <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sunsetbeachclub.com\" target=\"_blank\">Sunset Beach Club<\/a><\/span>.
