Granada, Spain


(pictures from 2005 trip)

We spent the month of July in Granada getting our TEFL certification. July in Granada is very warm and dry. The temperature was always in the mid- to high-90s. It didn’t rain the entire time we were there.

The city’s main attraction is the Alhambra, a Moorish citadel and palace. The Moors controlled southern Spain from around 711 until 1492; Granada was the last city held by the Moors in Spain. The Moorish architecture is amazing, as you will see. Granada is also known for its Cathedral, where Freninand and Isabella are entombed; and for its prestigious University and language school. If you had one city in Spain to go sightseeing in, this should be it.
