10 Things to do in Granada, Spain Travel Guide Video Transcript:
Wrapping up our travels in Spain, our last city to visit was Granada. Set in Andalusia at the foot of the snow capped Sierra Nevada, this is a place where Moorish influence is palpable. From hilltop fortresses to Moroccan markets, and tranquil gardens to quaint teahouses, in this travel guide we’re going to show you some of the things you can do in Granada:
This Cathedral was as grand as you’d expect. The stark white interiors were a bit of a contrast to the ornate churches we had seen in other cities, but that just made your eyes travel towards a glowing, golden altar.
The Moroccan souk turned out to be one of our favourite spots in the city. The street was packed with tiny shops standing shoulder to shoulder, all filled with leather handbags, glass lamps, wool slippers, colourful scarves and pashminas and souvenirs.
We continued our way up the hill into Albayzín. This is one of the oldest centres of Muslim culture in Granada. The neighbourhood is a maze of narrow cobbled streets, white-houses with tiled roofs, and small courtyards sprinkled in between.
We made time to stop at one of the teterías, or teahouses. This was the perfect place to rest on a cold winter day and enjoy some afternoon treats.
You can find numerous Moroccan restaurants in this part of the city for food. One place we ate at on more than once occasion was Al-Faguara. They offered set menus for lunch featuring hummus, falafel, couscous, tajine, and of course, lots of baklava.
Let’s take a moment to talk about Granada’s main tourist attraction: the Alhambra!
The Alhambra is a massive complex of palaces, gardens and fortresses that once formed the citadel of the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada, which was the last Muslim dynasty to rule along the Iberian Peninsula from the years 1230 to 1492.
This is the one attraction you can’t miss when you visit Granada, and you’ll want to book your tickets well in advance as they can sell out during high season.
We spent half a day touring the grounds during which time we visited the Nasrid Palaces, the Palace of Charles the Fifth, the Alcazaba, and the Generalife.
We decided to find a cafe where we could indulge in a delicious Spanish breakfast.
Another spot we explored in Granada is Carrerra del Darro, a small lane that runs along the Darro River at the base of the Alhambra. This street is lined with arched-stone bridges and historic buildings.
We’ll leave you with a few scenes of Granada at night and one last glimpse of the Alhambra lit up against the evening sky.
We hope you enjoyed this video and that you got ideas of things do in Granada on your own visit.
This is part of our Travel in Spain video series showcasing Spanish food, Spanish culture and Spanish cuisine.

Hi Sam and Audrey, thank you for sharing! how many days is enough to do what you had done at leisure pace?
Hello, what month were you there?
Anyone going to Granada should go to the Arabic Baths, it is an amazing experience. I went twice while I was there
Thanks for the tip Owen!
Thanks for the tip visiting Granada tomorrow!
Sorry to break it to you but first it's not called Arabic baths it's Hamam. Secondly, it's not Arabic it's Moroccan which means you can only find it in morocco, and differently from what you experienced there, it is nothing compared to the real deal here in morocco.
I would love to invite you to experience it
My son and fiancée are there right now. Love it.
@@sky-icebeats8997so you mean turkish hamam? Cause morrocans took it from the ottomans you know..
Granada looks amazing! The architecture, the food, the cats loved it and flamenco dance is one of the most beautiful dances in the world.
Thanks! It truly is a fascinating city. It is also one of the most fun cities to get lost in just wandering around.
I'm from Granada! Thanks for making such a beautiful video about my city! Even though I've travelled quite a lot, Granada is still one of my favourite cities in the whole world.
Thank you very much! We had a great time in Granada.
Hi Elena, I’m thinking to go to Granada in the next few months, how’s Nov/Dec weather ? I’d be traveling with my 8mo old daughter, I would like to go to Spain but I don’t want to go where it’s too cold 😊🌸
Oh man I was touring in andalucia and Granada was my favourite place. I'm from thr North of Scotland so I was used to cold/hot thing.
I lived in Spain 2 years (travelled a little bit to other European countries ) ... But with you guys, I see the real beauty of Europe.. ❤❤❤ Love you guys 🌹🌹🌹
Thank you very much! Do you plan to revisit again?

Btw you two - do you have any video footage of just the main sites of Granada? I’m doing a video history podcast on the Reconquista and you have some good equipment for video. Was wondering if I could use some of that footage in my podcast

Thank you very much! Granada was one of our favorite places on this trip.
Some great places to discover in Spain..seen many caves while running.
Indeed!
Just back from Spain trip that included Granada. Stayed in the Albaicin, loved it. Really enjoyed the Alcaiceria and got some nice souvenirs there. Also knew I wanted to go to a teteria and so many to choose so went to Diwan. Had some lunch but I was mainly going for the tea in the beautiful pot and glasses. We really enjoyed that it was nice and small and wasn't crowded when we went. Thanks for the tip!
Great to hear about your experience!
So excited to finally be going to Andalucia next month and visiting Granada, your video is very helpful! Looking forward to trying tea at a Teteria (maybe Diwan!), have our tickets for the Alhambra, and staying in an apartment in the Albayzin.
Thank yoU! Hope you have a great trip.

I've been waiting for this! (while preparing for trip to europe in the last few days, and Granada is one of the most highly expected cities). I have a suggestion. Could you also add a wrapped up information on the costs and budgets in your videos? That'd be so much more helpful!! Thank you

What month were you in Granada? We went to Seville, Madrid and Lisbon last year (loved your videos). This year we are going back to Seville and will include Granada and a few other smaller cities. Also liked your videos of Peru. Hoping to go back there again after 25+ years.
Thanks Rick! We visited in February. It was quite cold then.

Hey guys! Really nice video I enjoyed watching it. I went to Granada last year with my family and it was amazing. What camera did you use for filming?
That is cool to hear! We used a Panasonic GH5.
Wow Great vlog! I am going to Granada in September, so this was perfect! What was the name of the Flamenco place you went to, if you mind sharing that? It looked very cool. Great job! Thanks for sharing!
Another awesome video! All of you described the trip so well. Do think how many should one visit Granada?
Thank you very much! We highly recommend visiting Granada. It is such a unique city.
When I was in Madrid for work, I was invited to by a Spaniard colleague to taste Churro and I was shocked. I was like, how come something exactly the same as our food in China. Then the Spaniard colleague was like, yes that's why I insisted that you must try Churro. I ate the Youtiao in China when I went there and I was impressed. We don't know which was the first but it was just amazing that we have something in common.
Hey, I am a new subscriber, loved this video and watched as we are planning to visit Granada soon. I just wondered how many days you stayed there for? Thanks in advance for any information!

Beautiful vlog. I am planning to visit Spain in December 2022. (first two weeks) Do you think is an appropriate time or would it be too cold to wander around? When was this video shot?
Hello! What time of year did you guys go to Granada? I wanted to make sure I bring the appropriate clothing in March!! Thanks for sharing this vlog!
It was cold! If you visit during the winter months you'll want to dress warm for sure.
