Granada is like no other Spanish city. Situated in Andalusia, the southern-most province of Spain, with the stunning backdrop of the snowcapped Sierra Nevada, the city is dominated by the Alhambra, the palace of the last Moorish rulers of Spain prior to their eviction in 1792 by the Catholic rulers Ferdinand and Isabella. The taking of Granada by the Catholic Monarchs Ferdinand and Isabella in 1492 heralded the Spanish expansion that ultimately led to the discovery of the New World. To understand the history of Granada is to understand the history of Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries.
