Granada, the enchanted city, from Malaga

Whichever way you choose, by train or car, and from any direction: When you approach Granada, you can already perceive from afar the majestic Sierra Nevada, crowned with the highest peaks of the peninsula, the ancient Moorish fortress city, whose magic can still be felt in its streets, squares and monuments.
