Granada Cathedral

Highlight • Religious Site

Queen Isabella the Catholic ordered the construction of the Cathedral of Granada in 1505, shortly after the taking of the city, and chose for its location the place where the Royal Mosque of the Alhambra was located.
However, the scope of the project led to a search for a larger site and it was moved to the center of Granada, where the Great Mosque was located.

Granada Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

Granada's historic center is a charming blend of Moorish and Spanish influences. Narrow cobbled streets, squares brimming with cafés and shops, and monuments like the Cathedral and the Alcaicería make it a vibrant and cultural heart of the city. Walking through this area is a journey through Granada's rich history, from the Nasrid dynasty to the Spanish Renaissance.
