Re: I’ve just come back from…
Hola ,
Buenos dias
I’ve decided to make a thread every week about my travels and post some pictures as well. This week its about Granada, Spain. I went there in June last year so had a wonderful time.
Keep Granada in your travel itinerary when visiting Spain. The main attraction is the Alhambra palace and surrounding hills. The palace alone will take 3/4 of your day so a two night stay is a must. Granada has a small airport but the train ride from Madrid is recommended. Try to travel during day time as you will be able to see beautiful scenes. The Renfe trains are clean and 2nd class is very comfortable. But the rule of the thumb is book earlier from their website, the sooner the cheaper. The prices shoot up really high when e.g. you book a week ahead.

Estoy Bien!
I totally agree that no trip to Spain is complete without visiting Granada. We were in Barcelona, and took the night train to Madrid, and then on to Granada.
We stayed one day/night and then took the train back to Barcelona.
I can’t even put into words how beautiful it was!
