The Granada School
Laura Ruiz the head of studies at the don Quijote School says that 'Granada is not just the Alhambra, the Albaicin or the Royal Chapel - it's a path that takes the history of the Moors, the Romans and the discovery of America, and bring us to a dynamic, modern, youthful present (the city is home to over 60.000 students). Granada is colour: the blue skies and the sea, the white snow and the green fertile plain. But Granada is especially people: a lively, simple and hospitable city' Granada is indeed a stunning city and whilst the beautiful buildings are memorable, it is the backdrop of the city and its inhabitants who really make it special.
