Parador Granada
 

The Parador Granada is located inside one of Andalucia's architectural jewels - indeed one of the world's great architectural jewels - the Alhambra. By staying here, you'll be staying right inside the marvelous Alhambra grounds.

There is a spot up in the Sierra Nevada mountains south of Granada called El Suspiro del Morro - "The sigh of the Moor."  Supposedly it was where the last Moorish ruler of Granada stopped as he was departing and looked longingly back one last time at his beloved city as he retreated from the Christian re-conquest.

The Alhambra in Granada is one of humanity's great monuments.  It should not be missed.  This is architecture that is at once sensual, imaginative and inspiring.  The old Nasrid sultan's palace and the surrounding grounds, including the Generalife gardens, are absolutely enchanting - the stuff of fairy tales.  Moorish art and architecture reached a spectacular and wondrous pinnacle here in Granada.   Nearing the end of their centuries-long occupation of this southern part of the Iberian peninsula, the Nasrid dynasty's artists and architects had achieved a marvelous style.

Excursions from Parador Granada, and Alhambra Tour information

 

As stated above, the Parador Granada is located right inside the grounds of the Alhambra.  In the evening, when all the other tourists are locked out, you'll be able to wander the gardens (restricted to certain areas) of the Alhambra by yourself!  It's very hard to imagine anything more romantic.
