About

Aljibe Del Rey in Granada offers visitors a deep dive into the intricate history of the city's water systems. This charming attraction is a hidden gem of the Albaicin, featuring likely Roman origins with its impressive underground cistern and distinctive semi-circular arches. Visitors are greeted by a beautiful garden, creating a serene ambiance perfect for families, as it is child-friendly. The museum hosts well-laid-out displays that vividly illustrate the evolution of water management through the ages. Guided tours, starting slightly after noon and delivered in Spanish, are both informative and engaging, led by a knowledgeable guide who brings the site's rich history to life. While the steep stairs to the cistern might pose a challenge for some, the experience is well worth the effort. The limited information panels encourage guests to engage more deeply with guides and exhibits as they explore this captivating slice of Granada's past.

Imprescindible visita para entender cómo se ha ido construyendo Granada, desde tiempos pre-romanos a la ciudad actual. Javier, el responsable de la visita, no sólo es un entusiasta y animado guía, sino que además sus conocimientos sobre la Historia de la ciudad y el uso del agua en Granada son tan amplios que no basta con una sola visita para aprender todo lo que transmite. Un 1000 sobre 5
