we could not visit the mosque since we were not part of a group but wandering in the gardens is really worth it. The view on the Alhambra really is gorgeous and the atmosphere much quieter than at the mirador San Nicolas. I had a feeling of time traveling since you can perfectly imagine yourself during in this gardens a few centuries ago.
We went to the Granada Masjid in the evening of 9th October, 2014. The view from the Garden of Masjid to Alhambra is out of this world. In the night time the light up Alhambra Palace looks astonishing and breathtaking. Again we visited the Granada Masjid on Friday 10th October, 2014 to offer JUMA Prayer. That was an unbelievable experience to be in Granada offer Juma Prayer. Granada Masjid is must visit place when in Granada.
It was a small mosque, smaller than I had anticipated for a city that use to have strong Islamic history. But when you enter the mosque, the stillness, serenity will overpower you. I felt calm and happy. Blessed to be here. The view of Alhambra from the mosque is beautiful. Come here for a less interrupted view of the Alhambra as compared to St Nicolas Plaza, which is just next door. The morroccan restaurant behind the mosque served the best tagines, ever.
Located in a wonderful spot ( near san Nicolas ) this Masjid is simply amazing !You enter directly into the outside yard that has a wonderful view of Al-Hambra and its calm and a good place to relax.Inside the Masjid is built in an old Andalusian style and the Mihrab is like the Mihrab of the great Masjid of Cordoba.
This is the correct one.near Calle Horno San Agustín, 12, 18010 Granada, SpainWrong direction provided here. We lost at 1st. The mosque is so great with great people. We feel home here. Must visit! And also, the view of alhambra is beautiful from here
Beautiful building and tranquil gardens with the most famous view in the city.Open to visitors and if you have never visited a mosque before well worth it to learn about Islam and admire the view.
这是自1492年来格拉纳达建造的第一座清真寺, 并不大, 但地理位置很好 - 阿罕布拉宫矗立在对面的山上. 也是俯瞰格拉纳达, 欣赏周围群山的好地方. 不是回教徒, 我们没有'进'寺, 只看外观, 浏览漂亮的花园. 花园里有玫瑰, 薰衣草, 番石榴, 橄榄树... 和喷泉. 我们去圣尼古拉斯广场的那天天阴风大, 颇有寒意.广场上人仍然不少. 园墙挡风, 我们在里面休息, 拍照, 听广场那边传来的音乐...
It really doesn't matter what your religious leanings are I defy anyone not to find this place uplifting. The architecture is stunning, perfectly preserved and maintained. Don't miss it when you are in Granada.
