The city\u2019s parks and gardens, like the <a href=\"https:\/\/laconcepcion.malaga.eu\/en\/index.html\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/laconcepcion.malaga.eu\/en\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jard\u00edn Bot\u00e1nico-Hist\u00f3rico La Concepci\u00f3n<\/a>, burst into color with blooming bougainvillea, orange blossoms, and jasmine.
