walk you way up from the city center of your way down from sacro-monte and you'll find the mirador de San Nicolás. enjoy the view and the history of the surrounding neighborhood .

More or less this place attracts tourists because of the very good view from here to Alhambra. It is absolutely picturesque view to the fortress and to the whole Granada. San Nicolas church is small and not really impresive.

We arrived there at sunset and the view was really impressive. The Alhambra stood out against the darkening sky as a magic threatening fortress. And all around on the mirador there were people chatting and making photoes, someone was playing the guitar. So nice! Nice also the walk to it along straight winding streets

If you want to see the Alhambra in a beautiful setting be at the Mirador de San Nicolas at sunset. If you get there ahead of time don't worry there are plenty of outdoor cafes where you can wait.

You can say it just a place for a great view but for me it resembles more. The hill is filled with nice little white houses/cottages, it has narrow corridors, there are nice little places (like French cafeteria) and the view is spectacular. You can see the Alhambra, the Sierra Nevada ("snow pointed mountain"), the river and the city.

After visiting the Alhambra You should visit Mirador de San Nicolas. The best time is after sunset or about at about 13:00, when is not very crowded. On the square, next to the church, you can refresh yourself with the frosty spring water and there is a cafe to drink sangria and order tapas and cerveza (beer), usually at the... More

gorgeous view of the Alhambra in a really charming neighborhood, the Albacin. We ate lunch at the overpriced terrace restaurant just for an hour of that same view.

Great view with some markets were on with musicians playing music but a lot of people! If you like that sort of atmosphere, it is a good place to go. It was way too many people for my taste. The whole time police were there so I'm guessing you might want to be careful about in that crowed.

the party is going on there. The band and the people there are suspicious but this is the charm of Plaza San Nicolas. I love the view and the music.
