Granada Citycenter&Albayzin

Granada Citycenter&Albayzin

Granada is much more than the Alhambra; Let yourself be guided through the historic heart of the city and the Albayzín neighborhood, declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco. You will have the opportunity to walk through places as representative of the history of Granada as the Cathedral or some of its most famous squares. Our trip will begin at the statue of Isabel la Católica to go to the Corral del Carbón, the only Alhóndiga from the Nasrid period that is preserved in the country. Be amazed by the streets of the Alcaicería, an old souk that will transport you to forgotten times and will remind you of the markets of Marrakech where you can see and purchase inlay and fajalauza work, traditional luxury crafts from Granada. Next to it is the emblematic Plaza Bib-Rambla, which holds many stories and where the best chocolate and churros are served! Escorted between different buildings, we have the Cathedral, composed of three different architectural styles, and on its walls we can find medieval graffiti. We cannot forget the Royal Chapel, mausoleum of the Catholic Monarchs, right in front of the Madrasa. Beyond Gran Vía, we will reach one of the jewels of the city: the emblematic Albayzín neighborhood, whose narrow and labyrinthine streets are steeped in our history. We will walk through Carrera del Darro, where we will talk about the Bañuelo or the Archeological Museum; we then will start climbing to get to our final destination, the San Nicolás Viewpoint!
