\"Hammam<\/p>\n

We travel more than ever, and the possibilities for enjoying a charming, culturally rich getaway are endless. You don\u2019t always have to go far or spend much to discover places steeped in history.<\/p>\n

Today we suggest an irresistible plan: a weekend in Arab Granada<\/strong>, following a route that blends history, culture, and relaxation. Ready to join us?<\/p>\n

1. The Madraza Palace<\/h3>\n

We start in the historic center, next to the Cathedral, visiting the Madraza Palace<\/a><\/strong>, Granada\u2019s first Islamic university. Built in the 14th century under the reign of Yusif I, it offered advanced Quranic studies. Today, it belongs to the University of Granada and hosts various cultural events.<\/p>\n

2. La Alcaicer\u00eda<\/h3>\n

Just steps away, between the Cathedral and Reyes Cat\u00f3licos Street, lies La Alcaicer\u00eda<\/strong>, the former Great Bazaar of Nasrid silk. Once stretching to Plaza Bib-Rambla, these narrow streets are now lined with shops selling Arabic-inspired crafts and souvenirs.<\/p>\n

3. The Corral del Carb\u00f3n<\/h3>\n

Continuing along Reyes Cat\u00f3licos Street, we find the Corral del Carb\u00f3n<\/a><\/strong>. This former Arab grain warehouse and lodging for merchants is the only fully preserved building of its kind in Spain and is listed as a Cultural Heritage Site.<\/p>\n

4. The Albaic\u00edn and Its Cisterns<\/h3>\n

Our route takes us to the Albaic\u00edn<\/strong>, with its narrow, winding streets. Here you\u2019ll find historic cisterns<\/strong>, once vital for supplying water to homes and for ritual ablutions before prayer.<\/p>\n

5. Carrera del Darro and El Ba\u00f1uelo<\/h3>\n

We descend to Carrera del Darro<\/strong>, known as Paseo de los Tristes. Along the riverside stands El Ba\u00f1uelo<\/strong>, 11th-century Arab baths declared a Cultural Heritage Site. It preserves original columns, capitals, and star-shaped skylights in its vaulted ceilings.<\/p>\n

6. The Alhambra and the Generalife<\/h3>\n

No journey through Arab Granada is complete without visiting the Alhambra and the Generalife<\/a>. Whether by day or night, their beauty is so captivating it always invites a return.<\/p>\n

7. Relax at Hammam Al \u00c1ndalus<\/h3>\n

To end this experience, nothing beats a traditional Arab bath. From Carrera del Darro, cross the bridge to Santa Ana Street and arrive at Hammam Al \u00c1ndalus Granada<\/a>. In this idyllic setting, you can unwind and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the most authentic Granada.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
