Traveler reviews
Christian L
★★★★★5 months agoNice spot, beautiful gardens. It's not that crowdy so if you do the trip to the Alhambra, safe some time to have a break at this spot.
David Rodríguez McDonough
★★★★★3 months agoEste jardín se encuentra ubicado en lo que antaño fue la Almunia Real de los Alixares (s. XVI). Hoy en día forma parte del Cementerio de San José de Granada. El único resto arqueológico que se conserva del palacio es la alberca ubicada en el jardín, que se solía abastecer con agua procedente del Albercón del Negro.
