The South of Spain is a wonderful area! All cities we visited there by, surprised us. Granada was our first stop during our big trip to the South We were first attracted to the Alhambra, stop and shop locations which is the major tourist attraction of the city, but later found that Granada is a grace and has much to offer its visitors. The city, which was once Roman, stop and shop locations Greek and Arab colony, has a very rich history and unique charm. However, due to the fact the Arab invasion was the last before the Spanish rule, the characteristics of colonization are the strongest and even today are very present. Alhambra and the neighborhood Albacin, are examples.
Alhambra is really stunning. It is an ancient palace of the Muslim kings, who occupied grenade stop and shop locations in the past. The palace is the last Moorish rule in Spain, before they had been expelled. Besides calling attention for its architecture, the place also impresses with its endless gardens and also for its prime location, high on a hill, allowing gorgeous views. stop and shop locations Alhambra competed to be one of the new seven wonders of the world, but ended up not winning, which is really a shame.
As the place is very large and requires stop and shop locations many walks of visitors, I think you should stop and shop locations set aside a day to visit the site. To get there, me and Leo took the Alhambra Express stop and shop locations bus line that goes through the main streets of Granada is the end point at the entrance of the Alhambra. Super easy to get! Another tip is to buy Alhambra tickets online, since less than half of the tickets are sold on site, and they usually end up pretty quick.
The historic center of Granada is a cute, flowery streets and buildings hitóricos everywhere! In addition to the bars and restaurants that are scattered all over and guarantee fun in the day. One of the main avenues of the city is the Reyes Catolicos, home of the Cathedral of Granada. This avenue leads directly to the entrance of the Albacin, ancient Arab quarter, stop and shop locations which is another tourist attraction of the city district stop and shop locations and is also located on top of a hill nearby the Alhambra hill. Another stop and shop locations street that leads to the Albacin and also the Mirador de San Nicolas - a viewpoint of the neighborhood - is the Carrera del Darro. This road follows a stream and also the hill where the Alhambra and exatamenre begins at the end of Avenida Reyes Catolicos. The Mirador de San Nicolas, the view you get is the Palace of Alhambra with Sierra Nevada in the background - main ski resort in the region, which pump during the winter! Well worth giving rise to this look! It is also close to the Mirador which is the only mosque in Granada.
Leo and I stayed at Hotel Alcazaba, booked by http://www.hostel.com/, but honestly found it very bad and therefore do not advise ...
