After this first approach to the political and military power of the Nasrid kingdom, you descend towards the city following the course of the River Darro, whose waters have been border, defense and engine of life since Andalusian times. Later also appears the Genil River, whose vegas and channels have marked urban life for centuries. This descent reveals the traces of three intertwined worlds—Islamic, Christian and Jewish—visible in temples, neighborhoods, streets and legends that still preserve their memories.
