Art, Culture
You are surrounded by culture here. Having said that we do not have a lot of museums and art galleries though there are a few you should visit. The major churches are all worth visiting and the view from the bell tower at the Merced church is spectacular.
The most fun activity is simply strolling down the streets of Granada. Granada is called the City of Doors because you never know what is inside judging by the external appearance. Looking inside you may see a hovel or a beautiful colonial mansion.
Here are a few places you might like to visit.
