Enero 2026.Tras pasar la Puerta del vino, te encuentras con la Fortaleza de La Alcazaba del siglo IX. La entrada es por la parte inferior, donde hay un control de entradas, y es en forma de L, que impide que la puerta se vea desde el exterior. La Torre de la Muela es la principal torre defensiva, tiene 4 pisos, calabozos y terraza con campana para usar como alarma. Desde la terraza tienes unas vistas panorámicas de Granada, el Albaicin y Sierra Nevada. No hay que perdeserlas. Consejo, ir temprano para estar solos en la terraza.

Esta muy bien conservada, te permite subir a torres y balcones, da una vista panoramica de Granada y no te olvides de buscar desde arriba el Camino de los Tristes y la Catedral, imaginar en esa epoca que podian ver todo el pueblo desde arriba.

La Alcazaba de Granada es una fortaleza impresionante que ofrece vistas panorámicas de la ciudad y la Alhambra. Su arquitectura refleja la ingeniería y estética militar islámica, con murallas y torres que invitan a la exploración. Subir a la Torre de la Vela recompensa con una vista espectacular de Granada, el Barrio del Albaicín y la Sierra Nevada. Es recomendable llevar calzado cómodo, ya que el terreno es irregular y la subida puede ser empinada. Además, se sugiere llegar temprano para evitar multitudes y aprovechar al máximo la visita.
