What you'll see
A cobbled lane beside the small river Darro, crossed by old stone bridges, with the Alhambra's walls rising straight above and Renaissance houses and churches along the way.
A brief history
The river once ran openly through the city; downstream it was vaulted over bit by bit until the late 1800s, so this is the stretch you can still walk beside.
