I think €6,- per person is to expensive for this cathedral, I saw a lot of churches in my lifetime that were more interesting and spectacular and free of entrance.

Very pretty, a must see if you're in Malaga. You can get a rooftop tour for a few euros at the palace (yellowish / red building next to it) with panoramic views over the city!

Wow! Es una de las catedrales más impresionantes que he visto en toda mi vida!!! Merecen la pena 3€ si eres estudiante o 5€ la general.

Fue construida entre 1528 y 1782, es una de las joyas renacentistas más valiosas de Andalucía; desde 1782 tiene una torre sin acabar, esta condición de inacabada le da el sobrenombre de "La Manquita".

La Manquita, uno de los 4 monumentos históricos de Málaga. Pasea por su exterior y disfruta de su arquitectura en puntos clave como la Plaza del Obispo, el patio de los Naranjos o los jardines.
