A person does not just get to be a Malagueño because of birth; to be a true Malagueño, one has to be immersed deep into its culture and traditions. Malaga, a culturally enriched city, is said to be one of the oldest cities in the world. Moors, Romans, and Phoenicians ruled the city, and evidence of their influence can be seen throughout the city.

Malaga is known for its rich cultural heritage and historic landmarks. Pablo Picasso, the world-renowned painter, was born in Malaga in 1881; until the age of ten, he lived in Malaga. But Malaga's culture and traditions influenced some of his later paintings. The city has numerous museums and art galleries that showcase various aspects of its history, art, and culture.
