Guadix - the Cave Town in Spain, just an hour away from Granada 🇪🇸

Granada is an enchanted city, right? However, just an hour away from Granada, there is another charming town that stores fascinating history and culture of the caves, and that is Guadix. How to get there? Bus: 45-60mins, from Granada estación de AutoBús to Guadix. Operated by BAM, 8 coaches per day, single ticket around €6. What to see? 📍 📸 Barrio de las Cuevas: the cave district, home to over 2,000 cave dwellings that are still inhabited today. 📍📸 Mirador del Cerro de la Bala: where you can see the breathtaking panoramic views of Guadix, which includes the picturesque hills, valleys, and distinctive geological formations typical of the region. 📍 Catedral de la Encarnación de Guadix: an architectural masterpiece that blends Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque styles. Built on the site of a former mosque, this grand cathedral is a testament to the town’s rich and diverse history. Climb the bell tower for panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and the Sierra Nevada mountains in the distance. 📍 Alcazaba Citadell: a Moorish fortress offering stunning views over the town and the surrounding valleys. It is temporarily closed but it is still very nice to walk around that neighborhood. Guadix is a small city where history and tradition are etched into the landscape, offering a truly unforgettable experience for those who seek to discover the lesser-known corners of Spain. #spain
