What to do and see in Granada, Andalucia: The Best Nature & Parks

November 21, 2021 Tambra Mccollister

The Alhambra citadel of Granada is one of the most famous buildings in Spain: a Moorish fortress with grand archways and delicate ornamental mosaics. Step backwards in time as you wind through the ascending cobblestone streets of Albayzin. You’ll be rewarded with beautiful views from the Mirador San Nicolas. Granada’s nightlife is vibrant and varied, thanks in part to its student population. Hit the bars of Calle Elvira or, for a quieter outing, the traditional tea rooms of La Calle de Las Teterias.

Patio de los Arrayanes

Reviewed By 750dimitrisl - Sydney, Australia

Patio de los Arrayanes or Court of the Myrtles, got its name from the myrtle bushes that surround the large pond in the courtyard. This area is part of the Comares Palace where the King lived. The wonderful architecture of the Patio as well as the surrounding area is typical of the Alhambra complex. It is beautiful and it is one of the loveliest sights in the Alhambra.

Generalife

Reviewed By ANGELOV230 - Milan, Italy

Generalife Palace and gardens are separated from the rest of the Alhambra complex, and it takes 20 to 30 minutes walking through nice botanic gardens to get there from the area where Alcazaba, Palace of Carlos V and Palacios Nazaries are located. The gardens are very beautiful, with a lot of trees, flowers, water fountains where you can see frogs and dragonflies. However, the best part is the Generalife Palace, with stunning rooms with Arabic ornaments.

Carmen de los Martires

Reviewed By 750dimitrisl - Sydney, Australia

Carmen de los Martires is a paradise on earth, specifically in Granada! We visited after having enjoyed the superb Alhambra. This is really an oasis of peace and tranquility. Beautifully landscaped gardens with sculptures and water features. Here a church was built, at the top of the hill, to honour and remember all those Christian martyrs who suffered under the Moor domination, whilst Spain was under Arab rule.
