Airport in View; Granada

Mjet flies to Granada for several years now. The
city and it's region are steadily growing in
popularity and that is not without reason.

Granada is the capital city of the province of the
same name, located in southeastern Spain
between the shores of the Mediterranean and
the Andalusian hinterland. The city is located at
the foot of Sierra Nevada, the highest mountain
range of the Iberian peninsula. The Sierra
Nevada is the foremost destination to go skiing
southern Europe.

With more than a thousand years of recorded
history, Granada enjoys one of Spain's most
important cultural and architectural patrimonies.
Besides the Alhambra, the world renowned
palaces and fortresses of the Nasrid dynasty,
and the historical Moorish Albaicín quarter, both
designated as World Heritage by the UNESCO,
Granada boasts a Renaissance cathedral dating
from the 16th century and many other
architectural monuments of the first magnitude.

The Alhambra, a Moorish citadel and palace, is in
Granada. It is one of the most famous items of
the Islamic historical legacy that makes Granada
a hot spot among cultural and tourist cities in
Spain. The Almohad urbanism with some fine
examples of Moorish and Morisco constructions is
preserved at the part of the city called the
Albaicín.

Granada is a monumental city whose diversity of
styles gives it a real personality. Besides the
worldwide known Alhambra, don't forget to visit:
the Cathedral, the Royal Chapel, the Monastery
of la Cartuja, the Monastery of San Jerónimo, the
Science Park Museum as well as the different
museums and gardens. But, if there is something
that makes the visitors fall in love with the city, it
is its corners.

Granada has a large number of restaurants and
bars where one can taste succulent dishes,
among we can find: migas, remojón, habas con
jamón (beans and ham), Sacromonte omelet,
gazpacho.
