Posted by The municipality of Fuengirola is a mass tourism town on the Costa del Sol (Spain). It is one of the southernmost and warmest cities in Europe. The subtropical climate and the long, beautiful and clean beaches attract millions of tourists every year. The city has grown together with its northern neighbor Benalmadena, about 15 kilometers from Fuengirola is the world famous luxury resort of Marbella. Fuengirola is connected to the city of Malaga, 25 kilometres away, by a modern suburban train every 20 minutes.
The centre of Fuengirola is even more Spanish than most other places on the Costa del Sol. On the central square with the simple name “Plaza de Espana” stands the town hall (see picture).
