    Hiking

    The Royal Chapel is located in the heart of the historic center, next to the Cathedral, on Calle Oficios.

    It is the mausoleum of the Catholic Monarchs, Isabella I of Castile and Ferdinand II of Aragon, as well as their daughter Joanna I and her husband Philip the Handsome. Infante Miguel de la Paz is also buried here.

    Hiking

    It is best to visit the Royal Chapel and the Cathedral as if they were a single place, so that you can better understand Granada, which was created after the Reconquest, through the stylistic evolution of both buildings.
    They do not close at midday, and perhaps it is a good time to visit, as there are usually fewer visitors at that time. Another important thing: the Cathedral closes on Sunday mornings for sightseeing, it is open but only for worship.

    Hiking

    The Royal Chapel of Granada, built between 1505 and 1517 in the late Gothic style, is the burial place of the Catholic Monarchs Isabel I and Fernando II, their daughter Juana la Loca, and Felipe the Handsome. It is located next to the cathedral and contains magnificent funerary monuments, a richly decorated altar, and a crypt containing the simple coffins of the monarchs. A must-see for its historical and symbolic significance after the conquest of Granada in 1492.
