Granada is such an amazing and beautiful province. I have been wanting to visit Granada since the moment I knew I would be coming to Spain. Finally for my long birthday weekend I had the opportunity. We spent two whole days and it was wonderful.
Of course the first thing we did was visit the Alhambra. It was quite a journey walking there and we spend over two hours exploring inside. I took so many pictures but only included a few of the best for you to enjoy. Pictures do not do it justice and you really much discover its beauty yourself.
This is a view of part of the city from one of the tall points within the Alhambra. We walked all over the city in those two days and I already felt like I was getting to know this part of Spain quite well. I cannot believe the amount of walking I have done since I arrived in September... but this is what allows me to try absolutely all of the food I encounter :)
Those are just a few of the wonderful sights within and from the Alhambra...
Although we were starving... Tessa had some troubles getting through the more than two hours of walking and exploring so she took a little power siesta on a bench.
Later that night Santi and I walked up to a view point so we could get a shot. Of course you can't see the snow capped mountains or catch the real view but my little camera did capture this at least.
The following day we did more walking and exploring of course!! We also enjoyed some delicious gelato and free tapas with our local beer!
Before we headed back home we did some shopping in the oldest district in Granada. I purchased some tea and Santi bought me a beautiful scarf that you can see me admiring in the photograph below. Enjoy!
