Malaga a historic hub for fishing and industry in Spain
Malaga, a historic fortress city on the Andalusian coast, has long been a leading fishing and industrial center. Phoenician roots, Moorish fortifications, and a busy harbor shaped its economy with olives, wine, almonds, oranges, and sugar beets driving trade. The city preserves distinct districts for shipping, fishing, industry, and residence, while modern chemical industry and refineries hint at ongoing growth.
