Places to visit in Granada

Alhambra - The UNESCO World Heritage-listed mediaeval fortress and Moorish Alhambra Palace is a beautifully constructed structure that was an important part of the Muslim rule of Andalusia. It served as a palace for the later emirs of Spain and is one of Andalusia's biggest tourist attractions as it showcases Spain's Islamic history.

Generalife Gardens - Near the Alhambra is the Summer Palace and Gardens, built for the Nasrid emirs in the 14th century. The name comes from the Arabic expression “Jannat al-Areef,” which translates to “architect’s garden.” The gardens are full of blooming fauna and bubbling water fountains - a tranquil retreat on your halal holiday in Andalusia.

Catedral de Granada – In the centre of the old Muslim city of Granada, the cathedral was built in the 16th century on top of the city's main mosque. The imposing structure showcases the beauty but also the contrast between the Renaissance and Moorish architectural styles seen at the other locations.

Calle Mirador de San Nicolás – The lively square of San Nicolás is full of musicians, dancers and artisans. Immerse yourself in Granada's culture and welcoming atmosphere, and enjoy the breathtaking sunset.

Palace of Charles V - Located inside the Alhambra, the Renaissance-style Palace of Charles V is an ornately decorated building where you can learn about the history of Spain after Moorish rule.

Are there mosques in Granada?

Mezquita Mayor de Granada - Built in 2003, it is the first mosque in Granada since the late 15th century. It features a beautiful marble-covered garden with a courtyard fountain and breathtaking views of the Alhambra. The interior design is a mosaic of influences from across the Muslim world, with the mihrab being an exact replica of the Great Mosque of Cordoba, the marble tiles identical to those of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Palestine, and the windows a replica of those in the Sultanahmet Mosque in Istanbul.

Mezquita Shaykh bin Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan - Located on a side street in the Albayzin district, the mosque is open for daily prayers and has a separate entrance, prayer hall and washing facilities for men and women.
