How to avoid the worst of it today
- 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.
Where the crowds are
- The Carrera del Darro: The riverside lane into the Albaicín is a few metres wide.
- Mirador de San Nicolás at sunset: One small square holds everyone who came for the view.
- The Alcaicería lanes: The covered souvenir lanes beside the Cathedral are about two metres across.
Quiet places in Granada
