Interesting Area, Worth a Leisurely Stroll
While attempting to find the Mirador de San Nicolas we happened upon this area and found the winding streets, steps, architecture and general views to be fantastic. After visiting the referenced mirador, we ventured back down another side and were welcomed with well lite streets and beautiful views of the city down below. Definitely worth walking around and through the Albayzin to get a feel for how it was centuries ago.

Charming and quirky.
Cars and cyclists compete for space with distracted tourists in the narrow twisting streets where not all roads and alleys appear on the map. There are numerous tripping hazards here and I strongly recommend you travel with some kind of GPS capacity here. Traffic really is dangerous as there are no sidewalks and the walls show where cars have scrapped by. Well worth visiting.
