The Albaicín neighborhood is the most unique and characteristic of the city of Granada. The city of Granada had its origin in it and more specifically in the highest flat area of the current appearance of the neighborhood.

Most of the buildings are a testament to the time of the Moorish settlement. Some of the remains of the walls, however, date back to the Roman and Iberian eras. From Albaicín you can see the Alhambra. The view is an unforgettable spectacle, especially at sunset. The Alhambra is a 740-meter-long castle complex and a world-famous example of Islamic art. For this reason alone, this part of Granada is one of the most famous tourist attractions.

Hiking

Beautiful, interesting and nice neighborhood of Granada, with many small streets, stairs. Because of the narrow alleys and the differences in height, you can wander around here for a long time.
