Palmeral de las Sorpresas
Paseo de los Curas
Málaga, March 2024
"The so-called ‘Palmeral de las Sorpresas’ (palm grove of surprises) restores the relationship between Málaga and the sea. The port, which has gone through periods of growth and stagnation, has marked the history of the city since its foundation by the Phoenicians. Its industrial use over the last century provoked a total separation from the urban fabric, so the rise of the tourism sector urged to undertake actions, since the 1990s, to turn this part of the city into a new civic space. Facing the Mediterranean, this space takes the form of an isotropic pattern of palm trees, a pergola parallel to the sea." (El Palmeral de Las Sorpresas, Archello)
