Paseo de los tristes
Although its official name is Paseo del Padre Manjón, it has acquired the name of Paseo de los tristes (Walk of the sad people) since in the nineteenth century it was the road to the cemetery of San José, being therefore the scene of funeral processions. This walk offers stunning views of the Alhambra. Bordering the Darro River, you can enjoy a pleasant walk with bars, shops, houses and the occasional street, which, without a doubt, will not leave you indifferent.
