Abbey of Sakromonte
Granada, Carril de los Coches 
The location of the sun-burned abbey of Sacromonte in Granada is not accidental. There is a legend that it was at this place that Saint Cecilio, the first bishop and patron of the city, once died from the Romans. And this legend is supported by the facts.
The Cathedral of Granada
Granada, Calle Gran Vía de Colon, 5 
The history of Granada is full of glorious pages: first the Moors dominated here, after them came the Reconquista Spaniards, in a word, the quiet life of the city and the local population can not be called. But at the end of the 15th century, once again visiting the new rulers, the Spaniards, the city acquired its own Cathedral.
Albaicin
Granada, Albaicín 
Once, in the romantic and cruel times of the Moors, the ancient Albaicin district was considered the main central district of the city. Since then, a lot of water has flowed, but its appearance for the joy of tourists has not changed much.
Alhambra
18009, Granada 
The mysterious Red Palace of the Alhambra is a place where you can not just make original photos, but also plunge into several different cultures simultaneously. "Arab gardens have become like a true paradise" - the architecture of Islam here tells a real story as if from a fairy tale "A thousand and one nights."
Palace of Charles V
Granada, Calle Real de la Alhambra 
This, to put it mildly, knocked out of the general architectural style of the Alhambra, the palace was born in the 16th century, when the Spanish King Charles V wished to acquire his own residence in Granada. The style for that century is modern, European.
The Monastery of St. Jerome
Granada, Calle Rector Lopez Argueta, 9 
The monastery of St. Jerome was the first in Granada, which the Spaniards built after conquering the city from the Moors in the late 15th century. What is most interesting, the order for construction was given before the victory. That's the way - with uneasiness and with certainty - the Spaniards planned to start Christianizing new lands.
San Vicente Manor
Granada, Parque Federico García Lorca, Calle virgen Blanca 
After such introductory words of the great Lorca, further information seems banal and unnecessary. However, we will dryly clarify a couple of details for clarity. Federico Garcia came to the picturesque estate of San Vicente, which by our standards served his family just a summer residence, every summer for 10 years.
Generalife Gardens
Calle Real de la Alhambra 
Mauritanian aristocrats knew how to live beautifully and did not deny themselves comfort. Having rebuilt the majestic Alhambra fortress, they did not stop, and built a summer residence for themselves. "Dacha" for the Moorish rulers turned out all right.
Sakromonte
Calle Verea de Enmedio 
Sacromonte is a bright and surprisingly original gypsy quarter on the hill of the same name near Granada. It is here that the steep streets of the ancient Albaicin district descend, it was here that flamenco was born, it is from here, as they say, the most beautiful andaluzas came out.
Navas Street
Granada, Calle Navas, 15 
Spain - it's bullfight, flamenco, jamon, sangria and, of course, the legendary tapas. (For those who are in the tank: tapas are a snack for wine or beer, real art in Spanish.) Finding a bar with good tapas is easy, there are always homeless noisy locals, wine is pouring down the river.)
The first thing that comes to mind when mentioning the city of Granada is, of course, the majestic red fortress of the Alhambra and the equally majestic snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada behind her. However, this sultry at noon and piercing the coolness that descends from the mountains at night in the city of Andalusia is able to offer many more sights, though unattractive at first glance.
For example, the cathedral .It seems that there are no such attractions for a long time, but not in Granada .The local cathedral amazes the imagination, blows the head, spirits breath .He really deserves a visit .And also the labyrinths of the Mauritanian quarter of Albaicin, the viewing platforms lost in the middle of narrow streets, the noisy flamenco evenings in the gypsy caves (yes, the real caves, now equipped with a kind of club-cafe-bars, where real flamenco dances are arranged, not shows for tourists for 50 euros) ... Add to this the ubiquitous orange trees, icy sangria, the glittering eyes of the Andalusian, and by this you will only begin an endless series of Granada sights that you can not see at one time .
