Realejo
The former Jewish quarter at the foot of the Alhambra, where street murals, sloping lanes and long-standing tapas bars frequented by locals make up everyday Granada.
During the Islamic period, Realejo was the Jewish quarter known as Garnata al-Yahud. Today it is one of the most lively neighbourhoods in Granada. Colourful murals by street artist 'El Niño de las Pinturas' cover the sloping streets, and there are many old-established tapas bars around Campo del Principe square. You can visit the Casa de los Tiros and the Jewish history museum on the way, and walk up the Cuesta de Realejo to the Alhambra. Entry is free.
