The Alhambra At opening Your printed half hour is the only time the Nasrid Palaces will let you in.
The Albaicín Late morning Climb by the back lanes while the coach groups are still in the centre.
Monasterio de la Cartuja Afternoon When the old centre is full, the monastery north of the city has room.
Mirador de San Miguel Alto Before dinner A longer climb than San Nicolás, and it stands above the whole Albaicín.
