Granada is a city with a great historical heritage, but at the same time a young and modern university city. It is located on the western edge of the Sierra Nevada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Very few visitors spend much time in Granada. They usually only come for a visit to the world-famous Alhambra. But the city has much more to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The historic Albaic\u00edn neighbourhood with its winding alleyways and traditional white houses is perfect for a stroll. This UNESCO World Heritage Site offers spectacular views of the Alhambra and the Sierra Nevada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Granada is a melting pot of cultures. Here, visitors can experience the lively flamenco scene in the traditional caves of the Sacromonte district. Granada Cathedral is a masterpiece of the Renaissance and a visit is not to be missed. However, the highlight is definitely a visit to the world-famous Alhambra, a majestic fortress and palace complex. It towers high above the city and offers an unforgettable view of Islamic architecture and the history of Spain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Andalusian cuisine in all its diversity is an integral part of a stay in the region. The city is famous for its tapas culture – enjoy delicious small dishes, which are sometimes even served free of charge with a drink. Try local specialities such as Jam\u00f3n Iberico, Tortilla de Sacromonte, Piononos and the typical hearty stews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
