" As the Lonely Planet puts it “There’s no doubt about it – Granada does enchant. The Alhambra palace-fortress, stretched along the top of the Sabika hill amid its sumptous gardens, and the warren like Albayzin, Granada’s old Islamic quarter, are highlights of any visit to Andalucia. There is no other city in Andalucia where the Islamic past feels so recent. Granada also possesses many impressive and historic post-Reconquista (Christian reconquest) buildings. Its setting, with the often snow clad Sierra Nevada as a backdrop is truly special.” Granada is commonly regarded as Andalucia’s cultural capital. It is known as one of the few places in the world where you can go skiing in the morning and to the beach in the afternoon and, perhaps most importantly of all, you get free tapas in the bars!
