¿Qué ver en Granada en 3 días? 📌 Guía de viaje | España 4K

Welcome to a city in southern Spain, a city steeped in history—Muslim, Jewish, and Christian. A city you’ll love. Welcome to Granada! Today we’re going to lose ourselves in alleys steeped in centuries of history. We’ll climb to viewpoints where time stands still. We’ll walk among the aromas of the Albaicín, the magic of Sacromonte, and cross the gates of the Andalusian jewel: the Alhambra. Granada can’t be seen, it can be felt. Get ready because what you’re about to discover will thrill you. We’re Rafa and Javi, and this is Passports Without Limits. Right now, we’re beginning our three-day tour of Granada, in which we’ll show you incredible places you can’t miss. And now we’re in the city center. Behind us is Granada Cathedral, and one of the things that stands out is that the cathedral tower is unfinished. Later, we’re going to visit the interior and also the Royal Chapel. At the time of recording this video, admission costs €6 per person; however, you can get discounts if you’re a student or a retiree. We’re here. It’s truly impressive because the spaces are enormous, the columns as well, and the ceilings are also gigantic. The cathedral was built on the site of the old main mosque after the conquest of the city in 1492. With this ticket, you can visit practically the entire complex, except for the Royal Chapel, which requires a separate ticket. It’s a very special place, as it houses the remains of the Catholic Monarchs. After visiting the cathedral, we’re now here to enter the Royal Chapel. We’re going to buy tickets now and visit it. This whole area is also very beautiful. Taking photos or videos inside is not allowed, but we can tell you in advance that the visit is well worth it. Very close to the cathedral is our next obligatory stop in the city. We’re now in the Alcaicería, a shopping souk where you can find jewelry, gifts, and such. In ancient times, this area here was the crafts market, where you could buy spices, silk items, things that were already sold in the past. All of this has many nooks and crannies and is a very beautiful place to stroll, even to shop. And now follow me, and I’ll show you a detail. And now we arrive here at this small square, which is also very hidden and very beautiful. This area of ​​the souk is like a small labyrinth, where getting lost is part of the experience. Its atmosphere, its decor, and its shops make it a perfect place to buy a souvenir. The center of Granada is also very beautiful for strolling through all the small, secluded streets, and also because there are street performers, making it a very pleasant place to take a leisurely stroll. Now we find ourselves in the Albaicín neighborhood. This street behind us is called Calderería Nueva, which is well-known for all the tea rooms, restaurants, and shops. It’s perfect to come here both day and night. And here, apart from all the tea rooms, we also find shops like these here, which sell spices from all over the world. So, it’s perfect if you love cooking. We have this tea room, which we think is very pretty and has a menu that offers many options. The Albaicín neighborhood has more than 2,000 years of history and is the oldest in Granada. In addition to its shops and tea rooms, which we’ve already mentioned, some of the city’s most emblematic corners are hidden here. Another thing on this street is a shop like this one here that also sells Arabic desserts. And if you’ve never tried them, Arabic desserts are a true delight. It’s well worth trying some. And now we’re on our way to the viewpoints. We’re going to a first viewpoint, which is, to put it mildly, a little lower, and then, for sunset, we’ll go to a viewpoint that’s much higher. Another of the Albaicín’s great attractions are its viewpoints, which offer impressive views of the city. And now we have arrived here at the first viewpoint called Placeta de Carvajales. Let’s head over there and see the incredible views we’re about to have. If you think these views are spectacular, wait until you see the next viewpoint, one of the must-see spots for any visitor. Be warned, it’s usually quite crowded. And now to end the day, we’re here at a viewpoint, the Mirador de San Nicolás. We’re going to enjoy the sunset with the Alhambra in Granada in the background. The only downside is that there are a lot of tourists, but it’s perfect for enjoying the views. After the viewpoint, we also have a small plaza here, which is quite pretty, along with a church. The only thing is that climbing all this was quite difficult because there were so many hills. This whole area is also very charming, with all the cobblestone streets and the decorative houses. Another plus is that there’s a restaurant with incredible views of the Alhambra. The prices at this restaurant are a bit high , but if you can afford it, you’ll enjoy views that more than make up for it. Just a few meters from the San Nicolás viewpoint, we find this: the Arco de las Pesos, the old gateway that separated the Alcazaba from the Albaicín. This gateway is over 1,000 years old and is known as the Puerta de las Pesos (Gate of Weights). It got this name because the rigged weights of dishonest merchants were hung there as a public punishment. And now, here in the center of Granada, we’re passing by very historic buildings. Now we’re going to head towards the Paseo de los Tristes (Promenade of the Tristes), a very pretty area for a stroll. On one side is the Alhambra and on the other, the small shops, and a small river that we’ll see next, and you’ll love it. Now we’re getting closer to the Alhambra in Granada, but first, we want to show you some important places we’ll find along the way that are also worth a visit. And as soon as we arrive here at the Paseo de los Tristes, we find this small church from the 16th century. It was built on the site of an old mosque. And now, we find the entire Paseo de los Tristes, which is very beautiful because we have the entire river running along the entire promenade, and both now and at night, it’s a very nice place to take a stroll. This is one of our favorite areas. The narrowness of its streets, the sound of the river, and being at the foot of the Alhambra make it a unique place to walk. It’s also one of the most photographed corners of the city, thanks to the surroundings, the river, the architecture, and of course, the imposing Alhambra watching from above. As we walk along this promenade, we’ll come across historic buildings like this bridge and this church. And right at the end of the Paseo de los Tristes, we arrive at this very pretty square, where people are even sitting here quietly reading books. And the best of all, what we have behind us are the views of the Alhambra in Granada. One curious thing here is that the Paseo Tristes isn’t actually called that; they gave it that name because this path leads to the cemetery. Since everyone was sad, they called it the Paseo de los Tristes (Promenade of the Tristes). And as you can see throughout the city, there are constant references to flamenco and its profound meaning. And it’s no coincidence; Granada is one of the places where this artistic expression truly originated. And now, being here in the center, we’re going to go up this street to climb the Granada fence. After climbing this hill, we’re arriving here, and what we have here behind us is called the Puerta de las Granadas (Gate of the Pomegranates), which is the entrance gate to the Alhambra complex in Granada. It’s called the Puerta de las Granadas (Gate of the Pomegranates) because of the three large pomegranates that decorate its top. This fruit became the heraldic symbol of the city after the Christian conquest in 1492, also representing the Union of the Kingdoms of Spain. And after the climb to the Alhambra, the first thing we find is this very beautiful fountain that, according to what we have read, is the pillar of Charles V. The fountain we see here was ordered to be built by Emperor Charles V in 1545. In the upper center, you can see the imperial coat of arms, a detail that speaks to the power of the time. And following the fountain, we find this gate, called the Gate of Justice. You can enter without a ticket, so if you want to stroll through all these gardens, you’re free to do so. And now we enter the interior of the Alhambra complex. It’s very important to buy tickets in advance, as they tend to sell out. It’s also essential to respect the designated entry times, especially at some key monuments, because if you arrive late, you won’t be allowed in. And now this entire section here is free to enter. And they’ve recommended that we go between the Palace of Charles V and this church here, along this alley , and up to the Generalife. The building we see on the left is the imposing Palace of Charles V. We’ll visit it a little later in this video. And right now, we’re going to enter the Generalife, and here we do have to show our ticket. It’s the time we want. And now we find ourselves in the Generalife, which is the villa with the gardens where the Nasrid kings lived . This whole garden here is also called the Partal Gardens. We were lucky enough to visit on a sunny day, which made the walk through the gardens even more special. This tour will take several hours due to its vast expanse and the number of corners to discover. With the gardens, it looks very beautiful because it also seemed smaller, but it’s actually quite large. Right in the background, we find the Partal Palace. One of the reasons these gardens are so famous is because it’s home to the Partal Palace, the oldest in the entire Alhambra, which is still standing. It dates back to the 14th century and its name comes from the word “portico,” referring to its five characteristic arches. This part of the garden we’re in is called the Portico Palace. We have incredible views of the city of Granada. We’ll see these kinds of details in the windows throughout the Alhambra. They are one of its most iconic elements and give it that unique character that makes it unmistakable. And now we are here on the side and we can find the walls, the towers, and in the background, the views of the city of Granada. And within the Generalife gardens, we now head to another area that is also truly charming. Right now, we are walking through the gardens on the way to the Generalife, and it is very large. As we go to the Generalife, all along the side, we can enjoy incredible views of the entire Alhambra. Right now, we have just entered the Generalife palace. This part was built in the 12th century as a resting place for Muslim kings. Being away from the hustle and bustle of the city, it offered a peaceful and relaxing environment. Here we have one of the best views of the garden because you can see the entire garden, the fountain, and, on the other hand, the Alhambra of Granada. Although at first glance it may seem like just a garden, it is actually a masterpiece of engineering. It was designed with a Nasrid hydraulic system that harnessed water from the Darro and Genil rivers without the need for pumps. The precision of this system continues to amaze us today. Just beyond this, we find the Sultana’s Courtyard, which is the entire courtyard here. And now we’re coming here to enter the Nasrid Palaces. The entrance to this place has to be at the exact time we purchased it. And now we’ve reached the most important and also the busiest area of ​​the entire Alhambra. We’ve just entered, and here is the first room, where we’ve placed some incredibly detailed walls . And now we’re here in the first courtyard. And just beyond the courtyard, we have this hall, where the walls show incredible detail. And now we find ourselves in the Courtyard of the Myrtles, which is this one here. On either side of the pond are the bedrooms. After touring the Courtyard of the Myrtles, we head to one of the most famous and photographed places in the world. We’ve just arrived at the Courtyard of the Lions. And now, from the Court of the Lions, we’ll enter this room with incredible ceilings. This is the Hall of the Two Sisters, famous for its impressive vaults decorated with muqarnas and its 105 carved stars, which represent the seven heavens of Islam. And now we introduce you to one of the most emblematic spaces of the Alhambra, the Court of the Lions, a place full of symbolism and secrets. One of the interesting things is that the 12 lions surrounding the central fountain are all different. It’s even believed that the fountain functioned as a water clock, and that depending on the time, the water would flow from the mouth of a different lion. And now, here inside the Court of the Lions, we find ourselves next to the fountain, where there are 12 lions because it symbolizes the 12 tribes of Israel. After visiting the courtyard, we head to another of the important rooms within the Alhambra complex. In the Alhambra, apart from the Court of the Lions, we also have many other courtyards, such as this one, the Patio de la Lindará. This courtyard served as a rest area for the nobility of the time. And, as we’ve seen, here we have the ancient baths. And what at first glance may seem like ancient baths were actually authentic relaxation spaces, very similar to what we call a spa. They were used for purification, rest, and even as a social gathering place. And now we’re going to the next site, which is the Palace of Charles V. This palace, although located within the Alhambra, is not in the Islamic style. It was built after the Christian conquest and stands out for its unique architecture. As soon as we enter, we see how imposing the palace is, which is circular and has pillars and an incredible height. From the inside, we go to the upper part. The upper part of the palace is also worth visiting, as from there you have spectacular views of the courtyard and its majestic columns. Now where we go from here is the Alcazaba, the oldest part of the entire complex. It was built almost 300 years before the rest of the palaces we’ve visited. What we have here is the military quarter, where the people of the military era lived. Behind us, we have the Palace of Charles V, the entrance to the Nasrid Palaces, and now, as we’re here in the Alcazaba, we see the different towers, and the best thing is that it has incredible views of the city. Look at the entire city, Granada. We’re in another new tower, and the best thing is that we see the city even more, including the cathedral in the background. Being lucky enough to visit it on a sunny day like this is a gift, because we can contemplate the Alhambra with all of Granada at its feet. An image that’s hard to forget. And a curious thing about the Alcazaba is that they were going to build another tower, but in the end, it was left half-finished because, as it’s very close to the river, apparently the foundations began to sink. So, in the end, they stopped construction, and another tower that they were going to build also ended up not being built. Our next stop is the Sacromonte neighborhood, a place steeped in history, but you’ll see that the journey is almost as special as the destination. We’ll climb along charming cobblestone streets. And right now, we’re climbing to the Sacromonte neighborhood, another very characteristic area. But first, let’s tell you why this neighborhood is so famous and what makes it so special. In the 15th century, when the Catholic Monarchs expelled the Jews and Muslims from Granada, they drove them to the mountains, and then built caves in the mountains here for them to live. Later, it was filled with gypsies, because they worked for the Catholic Monarchs, and when they lost their jobs, they came here to live. This neighborhood is also known as the gypsy neighborhood. During the climb, we’ll see many houses with signs inviting us to enter and explore their interiors. However, it’s recommended to do so at the place we’re headed to, which offers a much more complete visit. We’ve just arrived, and we’re going to buy the ticket. And we’re going to be able to visit all these houses that are built into the mountain here. We’re going to enter the first of the caves. These caves more or less date back to the 15th century. This entire cave has the bedroom at the back, the living room on the other side, and right here at the entrance is the kitchen. When there were many family members, they would sleep across the entire room, putting mats on the floor, and they all slept together. And right next to the house we just entered, we find here, which are the stables where they kept the horses, donkeys, and all the animals. And right through that window, it communicated with the house next door. Just as there were houses for family rest, there were also spaces for sewing, working with ceramics, or making fabrics with all kinds of handcrafted designs. Of all the houses, this one here is very special because this is where flamenco begins. Although it can’t be said with absolute certainty that flamenco originated here, it is considered one of its birthplaces, and it’s no coincidence: the natural acoustics of these caves made them perfect for singing, playing guitar, and clapping time. If you’re unsure, we recommend it because in each of the little houses, they show you, for example, where people lived, where they sewed, where they cooked, and where flamenco began. It ‘s really interesting to see, and they explain the history very well. Another thing this museum has is an incredible viewpoint of the Alhambra in Granada. And to end the day, we’re going to visit a place that will undoubtedly leave you speechless. We’re coming from the Sacromonte neighborhood. There are paths that lead up to the place we’re going to now, which is up there. Super spectacular. After a long climb, we’re finally here, resting with the best views of the city: the Alhambra in Granada. There’s no better way to say goodbye to Granada than from this viewpoint, with the entire city illuminated at our feet. A magical city in the heart of Andalusia, captivating to everyone who visits.
