The place where I was born


Although I am not living there now, the place where I was born is Granada, a city located in Eastern Andalusia. 

Granada is one of the most charming and beautiful cities in Spain. Its wonderful location, near the Sierra Nevada Mountains and a few miles from the coastline, makes this city a perfect place to live. But Granada is not only a city in an interesting point in the map. What I like most about this city is all the places you can visit, the beautiful landscape, the ancient and narrow streets, the historic buildings. There are a lot of things to do in Granada; it has everything a person could wish: a lot of shops, some museums, theatres, cinemas, parks and monuments. 

Granada is known by everyone because of the Alhambra, a magnificent place built by the Muslim emirs a long time ago. This is a beautiful place to visit, but not the only in the city: the Cathedral and other different churches like Saint John of God,  the Albayzin and the narrow streets of the beautiful Acera del Darro, the city centre with its diverse shops, etc.

The food is another strong point of the area. In Granada, we eat delicious migas, refreshing gazpacho and the best fish from the coastline. To the most intrepid people, there is also a typical omelet called Sacromonte. 

In conclusion, Granada is a lovely place to live, where people who like to do activities are not going to be bored and people who enjoy a promenade are going to be delighted by the beautiful places in the city. Granada is likely to be loved because it is a city adapted to every kind of person.
