What people say

"The Darro River is a tributary of the Genil River, which runs through Granada and crosses the city center between the Albaicín hill and the Alhambra hill. Of the thirteen bridges that once crossed Granada, the Darro River has only survived four. Two of them are located on the famous Carrera del Darro: the Cabrera and Espinosa bridges, and are made of brick and stone. For both the tourists who visit Granada every year and the people of Granada themselves, the Carrera del Darro is one of the most beautiful areas of the city. The flow of the river is reduced in this section, which gives rise to low forests and bushes. A wonderful sight! In addition, the Carrera del Darro is home to 16th-century buildings, small convents, Arab-style houses and tourist attractions such as El Bañuelo and the Church of Santa Ana. This street is also one of the best places to buy souvenirs in Granada."
