Spanish to English: Guía Granada General field: Other Detailed field: Tourism & Travel
Source text - Spanish Guía Granada
El lugar
Granada es una de las ciudades con mayor encanto de la Comunidad Autónoma de Andalucía. Se encuentra localizada en el centro de la región Vega de Granada, en una gran depresión que está cerrada por el río Genil, teniendo su salida en Sierra Nevada.
Está formada por barrios por los que te fascinará perderte. Los más emblemáticos son el Albaicín, el Sacromonte, el Realejo y la Cartuja, entre otros.
Granada tiene una gran esencia receptora debido al turismo que atrae. Esto se debe, en gran medida, a la cantidad de monumentos que la conforman y también a la zona histórica. Una muestra de la arquitectura más simbólica es, sin lugar a dudas, “La Alhambra” declarada como Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la Unesco en el año 1984.
Un poco de Historia
Granada es la capital de la localidad que tiene el mismo nombre. Está ubicada en el Sistema Bético, a los pies de Sierra Nevada. Situada en la Andalucía oriental, en el sur de la península Ibérica, cuenta con uno de los más importantes patrimonios culturales del país.
Esta ciudad fue fundada por los romanos con el nombre de “Illibris”. Más adelante, tuvo lugar la invasión de los musulmanes en el país en el siglo VIII después de Cristo y ellos mismos fueron quienes le dieron el nombre de Granada.
Translation - English Location
Granada is located in a district called Vega of Granada, and it is the capital of Granada province. It is located in the Spanish Baetic mountain range System, in a large valley which the Genil River runs through before flowing into the Sierra Nevada mountain range. It is one of the most enchanting cities in the southern Spanish region of Andalucía (or Andalusia in English), in the south of the Iberian peninsula.
A snippet of history
Granada has one of the most important cultural heritages of the entire country. The city was founded by the Romans, who named it “Illibris”. In the 8th century AD, the Muslims invaded the country. They named the city Granada.
Granada is made up of neighbourhoods that you will be love to get lost in. The most well-known ones are: Albaicín, Sacromonte, Realejo and Cartuja, among others.
Granada is thought to have a huge welcoming heart given the amount of tourism it attracts. This is largely due to the number of monuments that span the city, as well as its historic quarter. An example of architecture that represents the city is, without doubt, “The Alhambra”, which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1984.
