🇪🇸 Spain Travel | Granada in 2 Days & 1 Night
🌄 Why Granada? Every traveler comes to witness the Alhambra—the Moors' final masterpiece 🏰. Its intricate 13th-century architecture defies time, blending beauty and engineering like no other. Nicknamed "The Pomegranate City" (Granada = pomegranate in Spanish), it feels uniquely raw and ancient, standing apart from typical European charm. Stay 1-2 days, play "Recuerdos de la Alhambra" on loop 🎶, and soak in its soul. 🚉 Transport From Seville: Train to Granada Station → Taxi to hotel (Uber works; taxis take cash/card). Note: Buses are slow; Bolt isn’t available here. 🏨 Hotel: Porcel Alizares Budget-friendly 🤑 (basic but clean). Big perk: 5-min walk to Alhambra’s Justice Gate entrance! Downside: Far from Albaicín old quarter (check location before booking). 🏰 Alhambra Palace Guide Feb (low season): Booked tickets 3 weeks early. 2 PM entry at Justice Gate → Head straight to Nasrid Palaces (allow 2-3 hrs). Route: Nasrid → Charles V Palace (looks like Fujian’s Tulou!) → Partal Gardens → Generalife. 🥘 Must-Try Restaurant Restaurante Los Nazaries 🌟 Location: High in Albaicín (steep walk or taxi—shoutout to our driver who navigated tiny alleys!). Order: Seafood paella + giant stone-grilled steak 🥩 (huge portions!). Free bread/potatoes included. Post-meal: 3-min walk to Mirador San Nicolás for sunset! 🌅 Sunset at Mirador San Nicolás Crowded but WORTH IT for the iconic Alhambra + snowy Sierra Nevada view. Go 30 mins early to snag a spot (watch your belongings!). #SpainTravel #GranadaGuide #AlhambraMagic #HiddenGems #EuropeOffTheBeatenPath #TravelDiaries
