The Guadalmedina (from the Arabic وادي المدينة wādī l-madīna; lit.'river of the city') is a river that runs through the city of Málaga, Spain. Historically, it has played an important role in the city's history, and has divided the city into two halves. The city's historic center is on its east bank.
