Full day in Granada. Private guided tour of the Alhambra and the Hispano-Muslim monuments of the Golden Bend

Description

During this exciting experience, we will visit magical places inside the Alhambra such as the Patio de los Leones or the Patio de los Arrayanes, and we will follow in the footsteps of the sultans and kings who once inhabited them. We will also visit the beautiful gardens of the Generalife and the Partal, and you will understand why visiting the Alhambra is a unique and memorable experience that everyone who visits Andalusia must have. To complete the experience, what better than to visit Granada, the city that overlooks the Alhambra on the banks of the river Darro and which communicated with the Alhambra from its bridges. In the Nasrid period, the Albaicín was full of palaces of the nobility and the rich silk merchants. We will visit some of these stately homes and Moorish palaces, which are superbly preserved in the Albaicín quarter, despite the poorly resistant materials with which they were built. We will take into account the inheritance and influences that we still perceive in our Andalusian culture after several centuries, even in our customs, domestic typologies, modification of spaces, tastes or ways of thinking... You will get to know in detail the traditional Hammams, or Arab baths where the cleansing of the body and spirit was more important than a simple custom. And you will learn about the history of the Silk trade in Granada and the Caravanserais. This full day experience invites us to reflect on a multicultural and overlapping history in a city that jealously hides and preserves the urban layout of that Hispano-Muslim city that invites us to dream.
