Just remember to take your camera with you as the fortress\u2019 elevated spot provides a great place for those family selfies!<\/p>\n<p><strong>A trip to Malaga\u2019s Interactive Music Museum<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For families partial to music and learning about its history, the Interactive Music Museum will prove to be a fabulous day out. The museum is filled with more than 1,000 instruments of various ages from around the world, 400 of which make up a permanent collection in the museum. Visitors can play many of the instruments and interact with the sounds they create.<\/p>\n<p>The museum is located in the 18<sup>th<\/sup> Palacio del Conde Navas, the historic centre of Malaga.
