Spain has been a popular destination for tourists from all over the world for many years¸ but now¸ due the relaxing of the European market and country borders¸ it is also becoming the desired place of residence for many European citizens.

  People from the United Kingdom who are looking for a this peaceful place such as this with its many advantages including the low cost of living and a favourable climate¸ will find they could experience a better quality of life here.

  For these reasons¸ the purchase and sale of rural property is a growing business and a good choice economically.

   The city of Granada is the stunning capital of this province of Andalucia.  In addition to this city's rich culture and history ( La Alhambra is the most visited monument in Spain) ¸ the province can offer numerous other tourist attractions¸ such as National Parks (including the Sierra Nevada which¸ snow capped all year¸ held the World Skiing Champions in 1996); the Mediterranean sea; health resorts¸ beautiful villages and a delicious local cuisine.

  The zone known as the 'Altiplano de Granada' consists of the regions of Baza and Hu?scar. Villages in the Region of  Baza are: Baza¸ Benamaurel¸ Caniles¸ Cortes de Baza¸ Cuevas del Campo¸ C?llar¸ Freila and Z?jar.

  The market town of Baza¸ a crossroads of the two civilizations¸ the Moors and the Christians¸  is a mix of curious old streets and monumental buildings (including some Moor?sh quarters) . North from Baza¸  between lush green valleys and vertiginous cliffs¸ is the village of Benamaurel with its famous Moslen caves; Castillejar¸ nearby¸ is located between the rivers of Guardal and Bravata¸ it is a town with quiet streets and tranquil squares. C?llar has Roman origins and maintains many of its ancient traditions¸ whilst  Z?jar is an agricultural town¸  located at the foot of the striking Cerro Jabalc?n¸ from where you have a magnificent panorama of the whole region and the Pantano del Negratin (a dammed reservoir).  Freila¸ a town of whitewashed houses and caves¸ is on the banks of the reservoir and adjacent to an incredible lunar landscape of eroded mounds of rock.  Cuevas del Campo¸ as suggested by its name¸ is a village of caves¸ and Caniles is the last stop before the exciting climb to the Sierra de Baza National Park.  Cortes de Baza is a charming agricultural village and Galera and Orce are both ancient villages with important Argarian prehistoric sites and an Archaeological Museum which holds the Orce man (El hombre de Orce)¸ a reproduction of the bones of one of the first humans in Europe which were found nearby . Noble Hu?scar is a commercial place with beautiful fertile plains and colourful houses. The Castilian Puebla de Don Fadrique¸ formally a hunting town¸ is at the foot of the striking Sierra de la Sagra at the edge of the region¸ and finally we have Castril¸ a dramatic¸ rural town on the banks of a white water river¸ which nestles under a huge cliff and is at the entrance to the Castril National Park.
