Description

The ancient neighborhood of Albayzin is the Muslim origin of Granada. Here the Siris settled in the 11th century, and even today, besides the Alhambra, it is the most important part as far as history is concerned.

During the tour, you will discover the most typical and present elements of the neighborhood such as its white houses, its cisterns, its walls, and ancient gates, its churches, its cármenes, its narrow, cobbled, and labyrinthine alleys, its small squares and above all its impressive views since throughout the visit we will have the imposing fortress of the Alhambra and Sierra Nevada mountains as a backdrop.

It is the perfect place to understand the coexistence and the passage of different cultures that settled in this area and made Granada the city we know today, especially Muslims and Christians, and how after the conquest of Granada this was changing and adapting to a modern European city from the XV.
