What to expect

  1. Paseo de los Tristes
    Pass by
    We will walk along the banks of the Darro River, along one of the most iconic streets in the city. From here we will enter into context about what we will visit, as well as the architecture and creation of the Albaicín neighborhood.
  2. 5m
    We will discover a very little known place of the Albaicín, from which to enjoy views of the Alhambra without crowds. We will talk about the life of the neighborhood as well as unique constructions that we only find here, the famous Carmenes.
  3. Mirador de San Nicolas
    15m
    From this point, we will contemplate the best possible views of the Alhambra, learn about the history of the Albaicín neighborhood, and at the same time we can imbue ourselves with the local culture. This point is a place of union for tourism and the neighborhood, where you can enjoy the atmosphere that is often enlivened by artists from the neighborhood. Being one of the most important points, you will have time to take pictures, and enjoy the views without haste.
  4. Fuente De La Amapola
    Pass by
    At this point we cross the historical threshold connecting Barrio del Albaicín and Sacromonte. We enter the quintessential gypsy district of the city of Granada. We can see the great architectural differences that are characteristic of the Sacromonte, and we will talk about the cave houses and their construction.
  5. 5m
    We will find a very different viewpoint to those already visited, it is more integrated to the street and is not so easy to identify. The views of the Alhambra from this point are unique, as we are on one side of the monument. Right at this point, we will enjoy the most beautiful sunset in the city.
  6. Escultura Chorrojumo
    5m
    We close the tour with a reflection on the cultural fusion between the two UNESCO World Heritage neighborhoods, Albaicín and Sacromonte, as well as the cultures that characterize them and give their own personality to our city. We will also learn about the history behind the person depicted in the statue that presides over this place. To understand this figure, we must speak of the period of Romanticism in Granada in the 19th century.
