Granada

I traveled to the city of Granada in Spain. It is a tourist hotspot because of its rich history dating back to the 8th century. It was originally inhabited by the Iberians but was then conquered by the moors, which is the more renowned part of their history. They have many buildings one of which is the Alhambra. It is also famous for being the last Arabic city to surrender to the Christians during the reconquista of Spain. Just a little fun fact, Washington Irving did a lot of his writing there.
