More InformationAbout TransportCar hire is essential for La Alpujarras region.About Scenery/Beauty SpotsGranada Everyone who comes to Andalucia stops to see the Alhambra in Granada , but there is infinitely more to this magical city. Not content with having the biggest collection of wonders from Moorish al Andalus, Granada also possesses the greatest monument of the Christian Reconquista. The city where Fernando and Isabel chose to be buried is still a chapel of romance. Granada's setting is a land of excess, where Spain's tallest mountain, Mulhacen in the Sierra Nevada, stands only 40km from the sea, it has become something of a tourist ritual to ski and swim on the same day. Mulhacen and its sister peaks provide the backdrop for the Alhambra , while there southern face overlooks the hidden villages of the Alpujarras. Around the city itself it is wise only to be driven into by a brave and confident driver. There is so much more to say about Granada and the Alhambra but it would be more useful for the would be traveller to research this for themselves.
