What To Expect

Plaza Nueva

This tour will begin in one of the most important squares of the city, the Plaza Nueva. Its origin must be found in Christian times, when in 1506 the extension of the hitherto Hatabin bridge or the lumberjacks was determined, which we were already at another entrance at the confluence of this square with Elvira street and Reyes Catolicos street.

Acera del Darro

The Darro River bridges were a fundamental element in the urban structure of the Islamic and Christian city, articulating the visual dialogue and accessibility between both banks of the River. At present, only five of them have survived, located in the well-known Carrera del Darro and in the Paseo de los Tristes, of all those who crossed the Darro riverbed until its mouth in the Genil river. The majority of these bridges were destroyed or their vestiges are found under the current Darro embossdado, an engineering work that was carried out between the 17th and 19th centuries, establishing a new image of the 'modern' city to the taste of the great European metropolises.

The Zirí Wall is one of the sections of the Albaicín wall. It is located in the highest area of the neighborhood, where the Ibero-Roman city that received the name of Eliberri stood. This 11th century canvas is one of the oldest monuments in the city. It is part of the original nucleus of the Islamic city of Granada, where it is thought that the Qasaba Qadima or Alcazaba Vieja of the Zirí monarch Habus (1013) was located.
