Itinerary
The conquest of Granada was a turning point in European society at the end of the 15th century and it is in the Albaicín where we find the most vivid testimony of this change. The Albaicín neighborhood is a synthesis of all the cultures that have passed through its streets, its squares and lived in its houses. From Romans to Christians, passing through the Visigoths and not forgetting the Romantic artists and writers who found so much inspiration in its beautiful narrow streets, all have contributed to give the Albaicín its characteristic charm. Here, Nasrid and Moorish houses, Moorish houses ahttps://walkingranada.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Albaicin-detail-2.webpnd karmens with their traditional gardens, old mosques converted into churches and Muslim palaces coexist with artisan workshops, traditional bars, family-run businesses and magical viewpoints.
