A wonderful Andalusian city.

DISCOVER THE CITY OF GRANADA

"A wonderful Andalusian city", it actually earned several times the price of the most beautiful city in Spain! It offers many possibilities for sightseeing, good food, shopping or just having a good time, strolling around the city and enjoying the beautiful views. Walking through its streets, you can see great Arabic influence everywhere, the most important example is of course, La Alhambra! An incredible ancient city and one that many people mistake for a castle because of its architecture and palaces. If you are in Granada, you definitely have to visit it. We recommend you to book in advance, because there are strict limits and time slots. See La Alhambra y el Generalife.

In addition, Granada is also famous for its culture of tapas and flamenco. You can see flamenco guitarists and dancers all over the city and if you want to see more, you can visit some of the best original flamenco shows "some of them inside flamenco caves (Tablaos) that you will find in the Barrio Sacromonte.

Tapas are basically served everywhere, although there are a few special places we can recommend, more on that below ;-). The best view of the Alhambra and Granada is from the Mirador San Nicolás in the Albaicín and is the neighbourhood where you will find most of our food recommendations in the city. And if you have time, don't miss the sunset from the Ermita de San Miguel Alto.

BARS AND RESTAURANTS

Here are some personal recommendations for food in Granada, but of course there is much more to discover.

For a good breakfast you can get the "Cafe 4 Gatos". Try one of their Tostada tipica!

Another good place for breakfast and especially good tapas and food with a great albaicinero atmosphere is the "El Albaicinero".Bar Aixa".

In "El Higo" you can enjoy a little more elaborate fusion food, and on weekends, artists often perform on the patio-terrace.

For lovers of seafood and fish you should visit ".Meson Rincon de Rodri". The tapas are incredible in size and taste!
