圆润雋华:“The scenic area is quite large and can be visited in 3 hours. I did not go to the Nazaries Palace, but I preferred the Charles V Palace. The parking lot cost 5.5 euros for two hours and then left.”

320***98:“Although the ticket is much more expensive than the official sale, it is worth it to buy the next day's ticket. When the weather is good, it is absolutely extraordinary to go to the Alhambra. It is recommended to reserve enough time to visit slowly.”
深圳小老吴:“The exterior is magnificent and rugged, but the interior is exquisite and magnificent. There is no Islamic architectural style, but a thorough Catholic church style. The Catholic Tomb of the Two Kings is next to the chapel, which requires additional tickets to visit.”
MaryJoy Dela Cruz Gonzales:“San Nicolas Square (Plaza de San Nicolas) is a lively place any time of day, with craftsmen, flamenco dancers, and street musicians setting up along the paving stones to entertain visitors. At dusk, crowds of locals and tourists turn out to watch the sunset over the palace grounds before adjourning to restaurants and tea shops on nearby Elvira Street. ”
Open tomorrow at 08:30-20:00(Tickets available until 20:00)
旅の径:“The Nasrid Palace in the Alhambra Palace is mainly composed of 4 courtyards (courtyards) and surrounding buildings; the Lion Courtyard, with its simple lion-shaped fountain and exquisite arched corridors, has become the highlight of the Alhambra Palace.
The Lion Courtyard, built in the 14th century, covers an area of more than 710 square meters and is the main component of the King Sultan's residence. The fountain with 12 stone lions as the base stands in the center of the courtyard (hence the name of the Lion Courtyard); 124 palm-tree-like marble columns around it form a rectangular arched corridor; the fountain water flows to the corridor through 4 intersecting canals, ding-dong-dong...
Walking in the corridor, the cute lions are naive, the various stone carvings are exquisite and complex, and the regular buildings are elegant and majestic... The scenery changes with every step, and the scenery is charming.”
_We***95:“It would take hours to look at each sculpture that adorns this monastery. The awareness of these beings that have filled your life with hope for centuries. Pictures cannot adequately explain this area, as every centimeter of this church is covered with a painting or sculpture, and a cursory look is not enough. For four euros, it is a must see! Walk around the outside of the church, the rest of the area outside the church is developed and contains various treasures.”
Open today at 08:30-20:00, 22:00-23:30(Tickets available until 22:45)
薄雾如沙:“The Alhambra Palace is divided into four major areas, one of which is the Henri Lorefi Garden, commonly known as the "Summer Palace". It was built in the 13th century and renovated by King Abu I Walid Ismail. It is designed to trim flowers and trees in various geometric shapes, stacked around two courtyards, and the courtyards are connected by canals. The canal adopts the commonly used Arabic rectangle, with a row of water nozzles on each side. When the gate is opened, the water column forms an arch, and the water droplets sparkle in the sun, creating a cool and refreshing atmosphere. This explains why kings of all dynasties like to spend the summer here.”
Open tomorrow at 09:30-11:50, 13:30-18:45 (admission ends at 18:15)
juki235:“St. Juan's Church is a small church in the centre of Granada. It's small but popular. In the square outside the church, there are a lot of performance artists gathered. The performances are in place. If you need them, they will take a warm photo with you. Of course, tips will be given.”

TheForkUser:“An intimate restaurant. The service was great and the Argentinian steak and bottle of Malbec were delicious.Tucked away on a small square would recommend a visit to this restaurant.”
TheForkUser:“Great ambiance, food, and experience! My wife and I had the burrata (with honey and pistachios!) and the carbonara croquettes; both delicious! Our waitress Mar was friendly and very helpful - her recommendations were spot on.”
TheForkUser:“A wonderful evening full of beautiful food that tasted amazing. We paired with local wines which added to the experience. Wonderful attentive staff and a super talented chef. Would recommend to everyone visiting Granada.”
TheForkUser:“The menu at María de la O was nothing short of genius—a beautifully curated journey through the region’s flavours. Every dish showcased bold, confident pairings of aromas, textures, and tastes that delighted the senses and felt both daring and deeply satisfying. The service was equally impressive: attentive yet unobtrusive, genuinely warm, and professional throughout. We felt completely welcomed from the moment we stepped in. A heartfelt thank you to the team for the thoughtful surprise birthday cake for my darling husband—it was a touching gesture that made our evening truly unforgettable.”
TheForkUser:“One of the best restaurants in Granada, even recognised by waiters from other restaurants. Being a Galician restaurant, the speciality is seafood. I had an exquisite octopus à la Gallega, and the non-battered praws were very good too! The calamari was a bit underwhelming, but still good.”
TheForkUser:“This restaurant has a lovely traditional ambience. The service was gracious. We were served delicate tasting, tender olives to start, followed by Iberian ham and classic bread kissed with tomato and olive oil. Our main course was the restaurant’s special seafood paella. It was absolutely delicious.”
TheForkUser:“Phenomenal! This was our first night in Granada and will definitely be one of the best memories we will have if our visit. Jesus our waiter was beyond attentive, he made amazing recommendations for wine and food. If we can, we want to go again, such a great date night location.”
TheForkUser:“Service was amazing! The staff were very helpful in suggesting dishes from their menu. Try the paella. We we’re a group of 6 and pretty much everything we ordered from the menu was excellent. Great location too!”
TheForkUser:“Each course was special. The combinations unusual and yet just suited each other. Lots of local products in a beautiful ambience. Highly recommend to let the owner guide you in making food and wine choices. We will definitely be back!”
TheForkUser:“Best food we have had so far on our trip! I had the sea bass and my husband had the salmon and both were exceptional. Very friendly and helpful staff. Quiet atmosphere which was welcome. We were able to get a table by booking just 45 minutes in advance.”
