Day 8 – Granada

Day 8 – Granada

Among all the things to do in Andalucia, it is a must to do a road trip on the White villages Route. The most famous road of Andalucia will take you to the most beautiful villages and countryside spots. Most of the White Villages, or “Pueblos Blancos”, are located uphill. In the past, that was the best protection against a potential enemy attack. If all the houses are white, it’s for a good reason: it helps to keep their inside relatively cool during the hot Andalusian summers. These villages are very charming, with their narrow streets and balconies covered with flowers.

After lunch on our own, we will make our way to Granada. The city of Granada is located at the foot of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, at the convergence of three rivers, Beiro, Darro and Genil, at 738 metres above sea level, yet only one hour from the Mediterranean coast, the Costa Tropical. You will discover that there are plenty of things to do in this enriching, cultural city, which is home to The Alhambra, a Moorish citadel and palace. The Alhambra is one of the most celebrated landmarks of the Islamic historical legacy and is one of the most enchanting, fascinating places to visit. Granada is also renowned within Spain for its prestigious University of Granada and, these days, vibrant night-life.
This evening, we will enjoy a flamenco show with  a 3-course dinner at El Temple Del Flamenco.
