Ciudad Jardín Street Market

The biggest section is clothing and textiles, with around 35 stalls. You'll also find leather bags and footwear, jewellery, and accessories. The fresh produce area has roughly 20 stalls selling local fruits, vegetables, flowers, and plants. There are also stalls with prepared foods, dried fruit, pickled goods, books, and antiques. It's a practical, locals-focused market with good prices rather than a tourist attraction.

The Ciudad Jardín market sits in a residential neighbourhood a short way from the city centre, so staying central keeps you well-placed. Centro Histórico puts you within easy reach by bus or taxi, and the area has plenty of good accommodation options at every price point. The AC Hotel Malaga Palacio is a reliable and well-located pick if you want something comfortable without any surprises.

If you prefer to be closer to the market itself, looking for accommodation around Ciudad Jardín means you can walk over on market day without any fuss. It's a quieter, more local part of the city, which suits visitors who want to see a side of Malaga beyond the tourist centre.

The market is on Avenida de Jacinto Benavente, 29014 Málaga, in the Ciudad Jardín district north of the city centre. Bus lines 2, 15, 17, and 20 stop nearby. If you're driving, there is parking near the market, though it fills up quickly on Thursdays. From central Malaga, the trip takes about 20 minutes by bus. You can find more details on the Malaga city council website.
