Why trust this site?
Because it is written from Granada, not from a content farm. When a guide here says the Alhambra entrance is a 25-minute uphill walk from Plaza Nueva, it is because we walked it. When it says a restaurant has closed or a bus timetable has changed, it is because we checked. More about how this site works →
