Granada Pinterest

Some of the images on my Granada Pinterest pinboard...

Albaicin Granada from http://allthingseurope.tumblr.com/post/1269366635 Granada - Cathedral Royal Chapel ***photo by Robert Bovington***Granada The tower in the photo is the Torre de la Vela. The bell was used by the Arabs to announce disasters. From this privileged position a vast expanse of territory could be seen including the Vega of Granada,. The tower was, therefore, critical for defence and surveillance. Later, the Christians used the bell to strike the hours and to announce the time that farmers could irrigate their fields. The Spanish flag was placed on the tower on January 2, 1492 at 3 pm.

Visitors can spend an enjoyable hour strolling the streets lined with the whitewashed buildings typical of Andalucía. Bougainvillea cascades lovingly down the sides of some of the buildings which are a mixture of early traditional and houses built in the 19th century, during the prosperous mining days. A castle stands prominent at the top of a hill. It was built on the ruins of a medieval fortress in the 17th century but it is now a private dwelling.
