From Granada
Keep in mind that private cars’ access to Granada’s city center is very restricted. For example, cars aren’t allowed to access the Alhambra from the city center.
If you are staying in downtown Granada, we recommend you to leave the car in the parking and get to the Alhambra by either bus, foot or taxi.
From Outside of Granada
If you are coming from outside the city, you should be arriving via the A-44 (motorway Bailén - Motril). This motorway passes just west of Granada.
You will need to take the exit to “Ronda Sur (A-395)” which already has a clear sign for the Alhambra. About 5 km (3 miles) later, follow the exit 5A where “Alhambra” is again clearly signalized.

Parking in the Alhambra
The Alhambra Public Parking has space for 500 cars and is under surveillance 24 hours a day. It is divided in four zones. The first one on arrival is for buses and vans.
The last one is the closest to the Alhambra’s entrance (Pabellón de Acceso), where you will also find the ticket office. As such, is the first one to fill up.
The parking price ranges from 2.75€ for 1 h up to a maximum of 18.85€ per day.
