Costa Del Sol: Day two

Amazing Granada

Granada is approximately 2 1/2 hours from Marbella and is located in the center of a mountainous region. It is one of the pearls of Spain and one of the most visited cities by travelers from all over the world. The long-time capital of Moorish Andalusia, it maintains all of the enchantment and mystery of eight centuries of Moorish occupation, which lasted until the re-conquest by the Catholic Kings in 1492. Among the monuments is one of the most brilliant jewels of universal architecture, the Alhambra, a series of palaces and gardens built under the Nazari Dynasty in the 14th Century.

This mighty compound of buildings – including the summer palace called Generalife, with its fountains and gardens - stands at the foot of Spain's highest mountain range, the Sierra Nevada, and overlooks the city below and the fertile plain of Granada. The unequaled beauty of the Alhambra makes for an unforgettable visit.
