The Cross statue in Mirador de San Cristóbal, Granada, Guide du visiteur et quoi faire à proximité

The Cross statue stands at the Mirador de San Cristóbal, a viewpoint in the Albaicín, the old hillside district of Granada. It is a quiet stop on the upper slopes of the neighbourhood, where the streets open out and the city spreads below you.

Tips for your visit

• Allow 15 to 30 minutes to take in the spot and the view, longer if you want to rest after the climb.
• The Albaicín is steep and its streets are narrow and uneven, so wear comfortable shoes and bring water.
• Late afternoon is a pleasant time to come, when the light is softer and the walk is cooler than at midday.
• Combine it with other viewpoints and lanes of the Albaicín rather than making a special trip for this one stop.
