Pick up a bottle of water or a light snack. The Central Market is a vibrant place to start, though you may just browse the stalls if you are already full.

Walk up to Lobera Park. The park’s design blends the natural slopes with flowers and trees, offering a stunning backdrop as the golden light hits the remnants of the old fortifications. It is the perfect spot to watch the sky change color.

Head to La Taberna Andaluza for dinner. It is a short walk from the park. Order a meal and settle in for the evening as the city lights come on.
