The Cathedral in Granada was spectacular, both up close and from a distance. It is so large that it is easy to identify from the Mirador San Nicolás. If you enjoy architecture, I wouldn't miss this. The cathedral is done in Renaissance style and is beautifully decorated from floor to ceiling.

I also enjoyed the Capilla Real, which adjoins the Cathedral. The Capilla Real was designed to be the mausoleum of the famous King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain. The monarchs lie in lead coffins beneath their marble monuments in the Capilla Real. The Capilla Real also houses a museum, which I found to be well worth my time.
