Spain 2026: Antequera dolmens

When we previously visited Antequera I learned of the nearby Dolmens but they were not open; we weren’t able to get a train for our final journey so we rented a (big) vehicle and drove from Granada to Malaga via the Antequera Dolmens … the museum had a well created “animated” video of the construction of these stone structures, some 6000 years ago (older than Stonehenge!)

We completed our drive to Malaga, checked in to a hotel and took an evening walk which included excellent ice cream …

Spain 2026: Granada

Another quick / comfortable train journey from Cordoba to Granada, primarily so we could visit the Alhambra, somewhere we had to book tickets long in advance to get to visit. Alhambra is a huge complex of multiple palaces some place almost 800 years old, along with beautiful gardens and great views of the city due to its location above Granada …

Next morning we visited Basilica San Juan de Dios once again very full of excess!

We had planned to visit “Catedral de Granada” but there was a parade – so we watched the parade instead!

After the parade we were able to visit “Catedral de Granada“, a huge interior space with massive columns …

We finished our day with a walk in the city …
