In particular, the historic centre of the city is the area most affected by this influx of people; furthermore, with the constant arrival of cruise ships at Muelle Uno, more and more tourists are looking for souvenirs to take home. This has led to the streets of M\u00e1laga\u2019s city centre being packed with souvenir shops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Santa Mar\u00eda Street, situated very close to the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/belugamalaga.es\/catedral-de-malaga-o-de-la-encarnacion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">M\u00e1laga Cathedral or Cathedral of the Incarnation<\/a><\/strong>, behind the Bishop\u2019s Palace, is one of the main streets that has become a \u2018souvenir street\u2019 for tourists, thanks to its prime location on the tourist route. If you\u2019re walking down this street, you simply must stop off at <strong>Flavours of Spain<\/strong>. Just follow the smell of almonds!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Furthermore, this is an important area of interest for tour guides, as it is situated in a key location for reaching any part of Malaga city centre, making it the preferred starting point for many guides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, we\u2019ll tell you about the history of this iconic street and how you can get there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The origins and history of Calle Santa Mar\u00eda<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The history of this street dates back to the reign of the Catholic Monarchs in the 15th century, when it was known as Calle de los Mercaderes. Following the Reconquista, the street was primarily allocated to the cloth merchants\u2019 guild, At that time, the street was not divided into two sections, as the area stretching from the Jardines del Sagrario to the Plaza del Siglo was occupied by the Convent of Santa Clara, which was subsequently demolished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In mid-1931, the Church of El Sagrario, situated on this street, was declared a historic monument. It is an Isabelline Gothic church built in the 15th century on the orders of the Catholic Monarchs. From then on, Calle de Santa Mar\u00eda welcomed more and more people every day who came to admire this imposing monument, making it one of the city\u2019s most important streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Very close to Calle Santa Mar\u00eda is the <a href=\"https:\/\/cambara.es\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Cambar Restaurant<\/strong><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/cambara.es\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>a<\/strong><\/a>, just a 15-minute walk away, at Muelle Uno.
