Granada has been attracting aesthetes from all corners of the globe for years. Its beauty is incontestable, and its mix of cultures makes Granada a truly special place. The city has a certain magnetism which is difficult to explain, one has to experience it in person to understand it. Be aware! There are many who have been irremediably caught under Granada’s spell.
Maybe it is the magnetism of the Alhambra, one of the most impressive monuments in Europe, which englobes the power, beauty and decay of an extinct kingdom. Its walls, halls and rooms hide many stories of love, power, war and betrayal together with some of the most ingenious inventions of an ancient period in history.
But Granada is not only the Alhambra. There are other treasures left behind by the Moorish like the cobbled streets forming an enchanting maze in Albaicin, the old Arab quarter, the elegant houses of nobles and silk merchants, the hammams with their gorgeous azulejos (ceramic tiles) so characteristic of the Moorish culture, and many more gems to be discovered.
