Exploring Andalucía

While Granada is an amazing place to discover in and of itself, there are many destinations just a few hours away that I wouldn’t have missed for the world. From the high-altitude chocolate shops of the Alpujarra to Ronda’s stunning views to the Alcázares Reales in Sevilla, Andalucía is full of memorable sights, sounds, and tastes. I’m headed to Barcelona this weekend, but I’ll definitely miss the warmer temperatures and ubiquitous Islamic architecture of the south.
