Granada : Cathedral and Royal Chapel with Albaicín and Sacromonte

It is also essential to visit the Cathedral of Granada, one of the most important works of the Spanish Renaissance. But, also recognized as a must is the Royal Chapel, one of the most beautiful late Gothic buildings in Spain. It is one of the largest mausoleums in Europe and is a symbol of Christianity as it was the place where the Catholic Monarchs decided to rest forever. The tombs of Juana -her daughter-, Felipe -her son-in-law- and Miguel de la Paz -her grandson- are also found here. This visit will take place in two parts, the first at 10h we will visit the Cathedral and the Royal Chapel and at 17h we will visit the neighborhoods of the Albaicín and Sacromonte. Each visit lasts 2 hours.

3. 3

   Barrio Del Albaicin

   1 hour

   Walking through the narrow cobbled streets with the help of a private guide in Albaicín and Sacromonte, is the best experience you can enjoy, since a guided tour of this type allows you to know the attractive features of the city from a magnificent way, not only that of an official guide simply, but of a person who lives and feels magic and beauty, as well as the history of the place.

4. 4

   Sacromonte

   30 min

   Sacromonte, a neighbourhood built on the rock. It was born 500 years ago to give shelter to the persecuted, some seeking freedom and others in search of treasures. Reaching it still has a point of adventure, streets that disappear at the edge of a pit or communicate between steep stairs, lead to another Granada born behind the valley of Valparaíso.
