The Albaicín, Granada’s old Muslim quarter, was founded in 1228 by the Moors. Its steep, twisting streets evoke a medieval past, with Baroque churches standing within the walls of former mosques. The neighborhood is also known for its traditional carmenes, or villas, which add to its historic charm. Visitors can explore the narrow, winding alleys and enjoy stunning views of the Alhambra from various vantage points throughout the area.
