Granada - Post Report Question and Answers

I'd call it decent for anyone. Granada is smallish (250,000 people) so it"s not a major metropolis, but it has one of Spain's largest universities and is very popular with foreign exchange students. Therefor there are plenty of activities to keep you busy: good restaurants and bars, plenty of nightlife and high-brow culture. Of course, Granada is one of Spain"s main tourist towns and it is indeed a unique and extremely atmospheric place. Spanish culture is very centered around circles of family and old friends. For families this means that everyone will adore your kids. For singles and young couples, it can be hard to break into a circle. This is especially true in Granada, since granadinos have a reputation among Spaniards of being conservative and aloof. I had lots of fun, but a lot of it was with fellow foreign students. Once you do make Spanish friends, they're a great bunch. - Oct 2008
