What are some good places to see in Granada, Sevilla, and Cordoba?


ill be flying there next weekend to visit the towns, how is the weather this week? ill be flying in next saturday, 24th of feb.

what are some good bars and restaurants to NOT miss, some nice places to visit, churches, monuments..you tell me...

ill be going by car to these 3 towns, so if there are any nice little towns to visit on the way, please mention, thanks!

when you go to granada make sure you go to the church to set up a time and day to go into the alambra. that way you dont have to wait in the lines. i would go earlier in the morning when theres less crowds. i would spend half the day there. definitely go shopping when you leaving the place. only take the tourist bus when you go all the way down the hill (u'll know what i mean once ur there). in sevilla definitely go to la catedral, la giralda (but be prepared to climb many many flights but its well worth it once you reach the top the view is spectacular!), torre del oro. sorry i cant help with cordoba b/c i didnt get to go there on my trip. but if u can id definitely try to make it to valencia. especially if u love the beach! enjoy

Granada: El somorrostro and La Alhambra
Sevilla: El Palacio Real (Los Reales Alcazares) , The cathedral, Italica (the old Roman city beside Sevilla) . Barrio de Santa Cruz, Calle Sierpes is a great place to walk but be careful with your wallet.
Cordoba: La mezquita
The 3 cities have a million places to visit but you can't miss these ones .
Have fun and be careful with the fino (typical wine in Andalucia to eat Tapas) ...one more thing in Sevilla try the Calamari Sandwich and the "pringa"
One more thing don't leave anything inside the car: jackets, backpacks , CD player..NOTHING , particularly in Sevilla. Try to park always in parkings not in the street

Granada Spain, together with Cordoba and Sevilla, is considered one of the three precious jewels of Andaluc铆a. Its panoramic views which include the white tipped Sierra Nevada mountain range, rolling green hills and numerous monuments with their rich history, make Granada magical.See http://www.spain4uk.co.uk/places/granada... for more details

Well i will be there in late March . DO give me some tips and hints on best plaxes to see once u have been there . I always believe the south of Spain is the most beautiful .

If you are driving , Ronda is a cool place to visit, East Southeast of Seville, also town Arcos de le Frontera, the Roman ruins of Italica just outside Seville and Medina Azahara, Moorish Ruins outside Cordoba.

you should go to The Valley of the Fallen (El Valle de los Ca铆dos) it is where the spanish civil war was faught and where franco is barried...it's has a beautiful large cross looking down on the valley.

Alcazar in Sevilla (i only got 1 day there) and The Palacio de San Telmo

Granada has world famous gardens that you ought to see...by far beautiful.

I would suggest just taking a walking tour of Cordoba, and deffintly see the Mezquita

I went to spain 6 years ago now and those are the key things that stick out of my mind of those 3 cities
