Best places: Things to dos in Granada, Spain

👍👍 Hands down one of the best flamenco shows I've been to. There's a bar along the side to enjoy a glass of wine or beer before the show starts. The venue is small, so most seats have a good view. We had the pleasure of meeting the stars of the show, they were such incredible people.
