The sprawling palace-fortress with its courtyards with shaded arcades and splashing fountains, dramatically set against the backdrop of the Sierra Nevada range, is the pinnacle of Moorish architecture in Spain. While many make a beeline for the Alhambra and then continue on to other stops such as Cordoba and Seville, Granada rewards those who linger longer whether on a quick city break or a deeper dive into its history. There are many other sites where the days of Moorish rule can feel remarkably recent even more than five centuries after Granada was conquered by the so-called Christian monarchs, Ferdinand and Isabel, and neighborhoods such as Albaic\u00edn retain an atmosphere that is often magical and mysterious.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"search-widget-overlay\" class=\"search-widget-overlay\">\r\n  <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__form\" data-search-widget-container>\r\n    <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__details\">\r\n      <button class=\"search-widget-overlay__close\" data-search-widget-close>\r\n        \u2715\r\n      <\/button>\r\n      <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__text\">\r\n        Granada      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"search-widget-cta\">\r\n  <button class=\"search-widget-cta__button\" data-search-widget-cta>\r\n    Tickets to Granada  <\/button>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/granada2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4196\"\/><figcaption><em>Jam\u00f3n<\/em> <em>ib\u00e9rico <\/em>is a staple of the diet here. Credit: Unsplash<br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of the dishes and ingredients that are thought of as synonymous with Spanish cuisine come from Andalusia: gazpacho, sherry and even tapas. Most of the country\u2019s olive oil is produced here\u2014you\u2019ll find rows of the trees stretching to the horizon almost everywhere you travel in the countryside\u2014while some of the best jam\u00f3n iberico comes from the Alpujarras region, just to the southeast <br>of Granada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exact origin of one of Spain\u2019s signature foods, churros, is disputed, but it was undoubtedly elevated to a new level when it was first paired with hot chocolate, a marriage that was made possible by Spanish ships returning, typically to Andalusia, from the New World. Caf\u00e9 F\u00fatbol is a Granada institution where you can start your day with churros y chocolate. The caf\u00e9\u2019s outdoor seating spills out onto the Plaza de Mariana Pineda on warm days, when you may be more tempted to order a granizado (a drink made with crushed ice) or a scoop of ice cream. Afterwards, visit a few must-see sites that are nearby. Right off the plaza, the Palacio de Bibataub\u00edn is an 18th-century building named after the Moorish gate of Bibataub\u00edn that once stood on the site. A few minutes in the opposite direction, the Cuarto Real de Santo Domingo is a Moorish gem in the heart of the city center. One of the few surviving residential buildings from 13th-century Granada, it is a forerunner of the Alhambra and other more famous palaces. A plus: Admission is free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gaze upon the Alhambra over a long lunch at Carmen Mirador de Aixa. The Albaic\u00edn (or Albayz\u00edn) neighborhood, which runs alongside the hill topped by the Alhambra, is a warren of narrow streets that follow the original Moorish plan. The area is also home to a number of restaurants whose primary appeal is the views of the palace from their terraces. Not all of them have food and service, however, that equal their settings, but the Carmen Mirador de Aixa is the best of them. Order the gazpacho (offered only when tomatoes are at their peak of ripeness) and one of the signature bacalao (salted cod) dishes. Carmen Mirador de Aixa is closed from November to Easter week. If you are visiting in the winter, Carmen de Aben Humeya is located in two historic Moorish houses surrounded by lush gardens and it offers similar views of the Alhambra\u2014and it\u2019s open year-round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/granada3_left-1024x578.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"4207\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/granada3_left.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/granada3_left\/\" class=\"wp-image-4207\"\/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">Start your day with churros and chocolate at Cafe Futbol.

Reservations are required and they often sell out months in advance. Before you make your flight or hotel reservations, your first step should be to make sure there are tickets to the Alhambra available on the dates you want to visit. Entries to the Nasrid Palace, the centerpiece of the complex, are timed but you should arrive early or stay on after your tour to explore the Alcazaba fortress, the Generalife summer retreat, the Palace of Carlos V and the extensive gardens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the popularity of the Alhambra is understandable, the crowds can also diminish the experience somewhat. It is easier to admire the architecture and artistry of Nasrid design at some of Granada\u2019s other Moorish sites. The Palacio de Dar Al-Horra (the Palace of the Honest Woman) in Albaic\u00edn was built for the mother of Boabdil, the last emir of Granada. La Madraza was originally established as a seminary, or madrassa, in the 14th century. Today it\u2019s a cultural centre that is part of the University of Granada, incorporating portions of the original madrassa as well as later Baroque and 19th- and 20th-century additions. The centre hosts temporary exhibitions that provide a glimpse at Granada\u2019s cultural and art scenes today. El Ba\u00f1uelo is one of the best-preserved Arab baths in Spain. While the lavish tilework that would have once covered the walls is long gone, with some imagination it is possible to envision how they would have appeared in the 12th century. The Arab Baths, on the other hand, are not historic and while they are a transparently sanitised and romanticised fantasy of life in medieval Granada, the hammam and spa complex recreate the atmosphere of a Moorish bath house\u2014a steam bath followed by a massage is an ideal way to end a day of visiting Granada\u2019s <br>historic sights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/granada5_square_topleft.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"4177\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/granada5_square_topleft.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/granada5_square_topleft\/\" class=\"wp-image-4177\"\/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">The Alhambra is the pinnacle of Moorish architecture.

Details such as tilework, Renaissance frescoes, and the Mudejar-tiled roof have been meticulously preserved while rooms incorporate all the amenities you\u2019d expect at a contemporary hotel. The location in the Albaic\u00edn neighbourhood is convenient to many of Granada\u2019s most famous sites: the Cathedral is less than ten minutes on foot while the Alhambra looms above (it is about a 20-minute walk to its entrance).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/granada11_left-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"4249\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/granada11_left.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/granada11_left\/\" class=\"wp-image-4249\"\/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">Palacio de Santa In\u00e9s is located in a 16th-century building.

Its name comes from the Spanish term for those Moors who stayed on in Spain after the Reconquista\u2014that is, the reconquest by the Christian monarchs. The historic building has been reborn as a 14-room hotel under the exacting eye of architect Carlos Sanchez and the result is a retreat with an evocative atmosphere thanks to details like a Moorish fountain in its central courtyard and elaborate coffered ceilings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-6 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/granasa13_left-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"7610\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/granasa13_left.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/?attachment_id=7610\" class=\"wp-image-7610\"\/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">Casa Morisca is situated in a 15th-century structure.
