Take
an excursion to explore picturesque towns such as Marbella, Puerto
Banus, Ronda, Torremolinos, or Mijas. Or opt for a day-trip to Granada, to
the splendid Alhambra, built in stages by different Moorish rulers of Spain,
between the 13th and 15th centuries, prior to the retaking of Spain by the
Christians in 1492. Ferdinand and Isabella are buried in Granada in the
Cathedral.
Note: Mijas and Rhonda are very picturesque; Torremolinos is less so. The
Alhambra in Grenada is spectacular, but seems in need of some additional
restoration. The adjoining Generalife gardens are perhaps the best part of
the palace, but they may not be part or your tour, because of the time
needed to walk there. Ask! SP |
