Best spots to see Malaga fireworks
Adam Woodward ONE of the most anticipated occasions in Malaga is when 600 kilos of gunpowder go off on Friday August 16 at midnight, igniting the start of the Feria de Malaga. But many locals will have already earmarked their best vantage points to watch the bang and sparkle. Where can you find the best spots?
