Hoogtepunten

Granada’s Old Town is steeped in layer upon layer of fascinating history. Wandering through its cobbled lanes with an architect to guide you will open your eyes to hidden details that you might otherwise miss. On this self-guided walking tour of central Granada with local architect and licensed guide, Manuel, you’ll hear about the city’s thousand-year-old past, and some of the notable people who lived here. The tour starts in the historic Realejo neighborhood, next to Fuente de las Batallas, the well-known fountain in Plaza del Campillo. As you wander through Granada’s enchanting streets and vibrant squares, I’ll tell you about the origin of the city. I’ll also show you some of the heritage left by the Islamic Nasrid culture, in places like Convento de San Francisco Casa Grande (a convent in a former old mosque) and Cuarto Real de Santo Domingo, a heritage museum.

About Granada

Granada is an Andalusian city below the Sierra Nevada, home to the Alhambra palace complex, the Moorish Albaicín quarter and a famous tapas habit.

The Alhambra, a hilltop fortress and palace complex built by the Nasrid rulers in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, is one of Spain's most visited monuments, with carved plasterwork, courtyards and pools, and the Generalife gardens beside it. Granada fell in 1492, the last Muslim kingdom in Spain, and the cathedral and Royal Chapel, with the tombs of Ferdinand and Isabella, mark that turning point.

Top-ranked sights in Granada: Generalife Gardens, Alhambra (Alhambra de Granada), Palace of Charles V (Palacio de Carlos V).
