THE NEIGHBOURHOOD

Soho: the arts district

Soho is Málaga's most creative and cosmopolitan neighbourhood. What was once a run-down area beside the Guadalmedina river has been transformed into a vibrant arts district thanks to the MAUS project (Málaga Arte Urbano Soho), which filled its facades with murals by internationally renowned artists.

CAC Málaga (Centro de Arte Contemporáneo), housed in the former wholesale market, is the cultural heart of the neighbourhood. With free admission and top-level rotating exhibitions, it is one of the most important contemporary art spaces in Andalusia. Dozens of independent galleries complete the cultural offering.

Soho's dining scene is one of the most exciting in Málaga. Fusion restaurants, brunch cafés, Asian eateries and creative tapas bars sit side by side on its streets. The neighbourhood's speciality coffee shops are favourites among digital nomads and young professionals working remotely.

Soho's location is strategic: 5 minutes from the historic centre, 10 from the beach and with excellent transport links. It is the perfect neighbourhood for young travellers, creatives, digital nomads and anyone looking for an authentic Málaga with personality.
