Why go
Begin at Corral del Carbón, whose entrance and courtyard recall Granada's trading history, then continue to the Casa de los Tiros museum in the Realejo. If current visitor access is confirmed, add Cuarto Real de Santo Domingo for its surviving Nasrid hall; the core route does not depend on that interior. Finish by climbing to Carmen de los Mártires for its contrasting gardens and wooded paths near the Alhambra hill. Leave time for the uphill final leg and check the garden's current access. The optional palace visit can extend the day, but Corral, Casa de los Tiros and the gardens make a coherent route on their own.
