This
long weekend has been the occasion for us, to volunteer to discover the territory
and the choosen destination has been Andalucia. During our 4 day trip we could
have experienced a lot of twists and discovered a variety of breathtaking
scenery and places.
It
all start with 2 day in Malaga, a vibrant city next to the sea, where we where able
to enjoy its mediteranean atmosphere and the sangria tapas bar. The visit of
the Gibralfaro castle has been a good excursion to learn the city history and
understand the the legacy of the Muslim presence.
Finally
Malaga is the city of Picasso, so a visit to his museum was a must.
We then took the road back inland to Granada.
We were able to discover this magnificent city where calm and beauty reign. We
were impressed by the splendid palace of the Alhambra and were
delighted to wander through the steep little streets with its white houses
decorated in the old style.
The close proximity of the Sierra
Nevada allows us to go hiking in this sumptuous national park. We walked 28km
between the ski resort of Sierra Nevada and the village of the Alpujarras de
Cupileira, passing by the Pico Veleta at 3396m of altitude.
Overall it was an amazing trip and
Andalucia is the region that we will remember, we hope to have many more trips like
this.
