The region of Andalusia in Southern Spain is famous for its rich moorish history, great (free!) food and Flamenco. It had been on the bucket list of me and my best friend for ages and we finally booked the backpacking trip and explored the region going from city to city by public transportation. It was an unforgettable and beautiful adventure!

Nestled in the embrace of the Sierra Nevada mountains, Granada shines as a gem of southern Spain, captivating visitors with its profound history and dynamic culture. Perched alongside the gentle flow of the Genil River, this mesmerizing city seamlessly marries the splendor of its past with the vibrancy of the present. Stroll through the city's labyrinthine streets adorned with magnificent examples of Moorish and Renaissance architecture, wander through the verdant expanses of the Generalife gardens, or immerse yourself in the fervent rhythms of traditional flamenco. Granada promises a unique and unforgettable journey for every explorer.
