Málaga Park, Mediterranean park in central Málaga, Spain

Málaga Park is a long, narrow garden strip in central Málaga running from Plaza de la Marina to Plaza del General Torrijos, between the city and the port. A road crosses it, with monumental buildings on the north side and dense palm groves on the south. The Eduardo Ocón auditorium stands in the centre.

The park was established in 1897 on reclaimed seaside land after an extended construction effort. This transformation of coastal terrain into green space created an important public area for the expanding city.

Benches along the paths are faced with Seville azulejo tiles, and busts and obelisks honour Málaga figures and writers linked to the city, among them Rubén Darío, Salvador Rueda and the painter Antonio Muñoz Degrain. In the centre stands the Auditorio Eduardo Ocón, used for verdiales music festivals and other events through the year.

The park runs as a long strip between the road and the port, from Plaza de la Marina to Plaza del General Torrijos, so it is crossed on foot along its length rather than entered at a single gate. The Auditorio Eduardo Ocón sits in the middle, a useful landmark for meeting. The northern side borders the monumental buildings and the Alcazaba above.

The park's planting began in 1899 on land filled with rubble from houses demolished on the southern slope of the Alcazaba and with sediment dredged from the Guadalmedina riverbed. Its 2007 renovation raised the collection to 300 species, among them the palo borracho.
