Book Description

We welcome you in your new Voyage Experience guide: "Granada - City trip in Andalusia". If you are planning to spend a weekend or a short stay of a few days in Granada, then this guide will help you to discover this beautiful Andalusian city, located at the foot of the mountains of the Sierra Nevada as well as the small town of Santa Fe, located 11 km further. You will also find beautiful surprises in Alhama de Granada, as well as in the natural trails of a superb dizzying hike that we will propose to you just a few kilometers from the big city. You will certainly appreciate the harmonious mix of cultures that, over the centuries, have made Granada a true multifaceted city and region. Each of its neighborhoods has its own personality and identity, including the Alcaicería, the cathedral and its stunning palatial complex, the Alhambra, which is a true city all by itself. We will share with you our discoveries: the gorgeous city of Granada, but also the little Santa Fe - witness of the last offensive of the Catholic Kings against the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada, Alhama de Granada and a breathtaking hike in the region. If you want to discover at the same time the superb and surprising region of Guadix which equals in beauty the famous Cappadocia in Turkey and its troglodyte life, then do not hesitate to buy the guide dedicated to it. We spent more than two months touring this beautiful Andalusian region, amazed by its beauties. So why not you?

Book Description

Yearning for a change, Steven Nightingale took his family to live in the ancient Andalucían city of Granada. But as he journeyed through its hidden courtyards, scented gardens and sun-warmed plazas, Steven discovered that Granada's present cannot be separated from its past, and began an eight-year quest to discover more. Where once Christians, Muslims and Jews lived peacefully together and the arts and sciences flourished, Granada also witnessed brutality: places of worship razed to the ground, books burned, massacre and anarchy. In the 1600s the once-populous city was reduced to 6,000 who lived among rubble. In the next three centuries, the deterioration worsened, and the city became a refuge for anarchists; then during the Spanish Civil War, fascism took hold. Literary and sensual, Steven Nightingale produces a portrait of a now-thriving city and the joy he discovered there, revealing the resilience and kindness of its people, the resonance of its gardens and architecture, the wonders of the Alhambra and the cyclical nature of darkness and light in the history of Andalucía.At once personal and far-reaching, Granada is an epic journey through the soul of this most iconic of cities.

Book Description

Ever since Ernest Hemingway popularized the fiesta de San Fermín with the publication of The Sun Also Rises in 1926, the world has been enthralled with the concept of running with the bulls. For millions, running with the bulls remains on their bucket list, and for Hemingway fans it is a lifelong dream. For Peter N. Milligan, it is a way of life. Part memoir and part travel guide, Bulls Before Breakfast recounts Milligan's many adventures in Pamplona, Spain. In his dozen years of visiting the fiesta de San Fermín, Milligan has run with the bulls over 70 times and accumulated stories both thrilling and terrifying. Bulls Before Breakfast is the definitive guide to Pamplona, its famed fiesta, and the surrounding Kingdom of Navarra. It is also a memoir of two brothers running with the bulls and exploring every corner of the city, the countryside, the mountains, the beaches, and the famed restaurants of the Basque hinterland. The book focuses on local knowledge, and the hidden mysteries of this closed, private culture and community. Milligan has slowly pried open this trove of secrets over the past twelve years, all while refining the art of getting between the horns of a massive, perfect Spanish killing machine, el toro bravo, and running for his life.
