Marbella: Attractions
Located in the heart of the historical center of
Marbella, is the colorful Seat of the Naranjos. It is characterized
by the three historical buildings: the Consistorial House , the
House of the Corregidor and the old Hermitage of Santiago. In the
center of the seat is a bust of King Don Juan Carlos I, surrounded
by flowering plants which in spring impregnate the air with their
sweet scent. Nearby, is the Plaza de la Iglesia and further down
is the Museo del Grabado Español Contemporáneo, which
houses works by Picasso, Miró and Dalí. East of the
old town, in Parque de la Represa is the interesting Museo Bonsai,
devoted to the Japanese miniature-tree art.
Playa de la Fontanilla, west of Glorieta de la
Fontanilla, and Playa de Casablanca, beyond Playa de la Fontanilla,
are longer, broader, and less crowded than the central beaches.
There are daily excursion to Puerto Banús,
the Costa del Sol's flashiest marina. The Banús harbor, is
