You continue towards the Granada Cathedral, which is a 16th century Roman Catholic church, built on the site of the former Great Mosque.

Bib-Rambla Square

Your tour continues with a visit to the Bib-Rambla Square, a square located in the bustling city center of Granada. The square is also known as Plaza de las Flores which means square of flowers in English. Initially, the square used to be the scene for bullfights, festivals, and many more commercial happenings. Later, the square became the central trading point of the city. The market vendors focussed mainly on selling fish, meat, and vegetables. At this square, you find a lot of flower stalls with in the middle, the fountain of Neptunes.
