Granada

I have been in Granada many times. I have spent every Christmas, lots of week-ends, summers... even I was baptized there. My father is from Granada; my mother studied there. Nowadays, my grandma and all my cousins aunts and uncles live in this beautiful city; due to the time that I have spent there, I love this city.

Granada is a city placed in Andalusia, in the South-East of Spain, near the side of Sierra Nevada in the confluence of the rivers Genil, Darro and Beiro, with an average altitude of 700 metres on the level of the sea.

Tourism in Granada is very important, you can visit wonderful places such as: Alhambra and Generalife, Sacromonte, Albahicín, the cathedral, el Mirador de San Nicolás... Granada´s history is interesting, there are monuments of different cultures, although the most important ones are Arabic.

Granada is a cosmopolitan city and you can do whatever you want. For example: go shopping, visit fantastic places, and taste its gastronomy. Sierra Nevada is thirty minutes from Granada, there, you can ski or pracise snowboard, and just in the opposite direction you may find the tropical beach.

I love Granada because there are many possibilities to have fun. I think it is a perfect city to study, thanks to its ancient and big university. I love walking around it, especially at Christmas, when the streets are decorated. I would like to study there. The worst thing in Granada is getting stuck in a traffic jam, although public means of transport are alright.

In conclusion, Granada is a fantastic city and everybody may have a good time, enjoying all these facilities.
