"Strolling Through Sacromonte, After the Alhambra The walk to Sacromonte is a bit nerve-wracking since the pedestrian lanes and sidewalks disappear from time to time, and there are several blind curves, but it is worth all the adventure. Walking alongside whitewashed houses with large succulent gardens while staring at the Alhambra, you really begin to understand what life is like in Andalucia. If you persist uphill to the church you will enjoy an incredible, breathtaking view; this is still one of my best memories of Granada. Be sure to check out a flamenco show in one of the caves at night - the atmosphere is incredible, passionate, and simply Spanish. Photo by Maximo Lopez/Flickr ."

Always on reconstructed sites--in this case, the medieval Santas Cuevas (Holy Caves)--one worries about authenticity. How did the moroscos, gypsies (Roma/Gitanos), and early Christians--hiding from enemies over the centuries--actually live? The emphasis here is on Sacromonte's more recent 19th century heritage rather than medieval. An especially nice feature is the emphasis on the area's ecology--insects, plants, topography--and the cave dwellers' lives building on the assets nature had provided. Charming, helpful personnel run the museum.

This is only 5 Euros but still imo not worth the price of admission. Admittedly we were in a rush because we needed to make our reservation at Alhambra. But the caves did not seem authentic at all. I seriously doubt this is how the gypsies were living. The rooms for the flamenco and stables in particular seemed to be a bit of a joke. This just seemed like the gypsy homes from a Disney movie.
