Narrow streets int his old part of the city, facing the alhambra site, this wonderful district is really worthy, maybe the most beautiful part of the city! Have a drink at the mirador of San Nicolas and enjoy the wonderful on the Alhambra

If you've never been to Morocco, this will give you a good sense as to what a Moroccan "souk" might be like...great finds, including tapestries, slippers, leather goods, lamps, etc.

Cobbled streets, white houses, the odd flower pot, washing strung out between two windows, cars travelling... More
