If you see these cats at the Alhambra in Granada, please tell them I said "hi"...or "hola".  I think these cats speak Spanish only.

The Alhambra in Granada.  For the unique architecture experience in Spain, I struggle to think of a better place to visit than the Alhambra in Granada.

If you are a cat lover, cats can be a fun photography topic while traveling in Spain.  You are sure to spot a few cats in Spain during your travels.

Keep a look-out. Cats can appear in the strangest places in Spain, from historic monuments to parks.

I saw several friendly cats at the Alhambra, a famous 'castle' in Granada, Spain.  The cats where hanging out in the gardens and around some of the old buildings.

Here's 2 friendly cats keeping guard - or are they posing just for me?

Spain Idol? Not These Street Performers

What does it take to perform worse than Britney Spears?

This YouTube video shot in Granada, Spain shows street performers who have what it takes to perform a show badly. Are they actually making money this way?

I'd advise them on a career change.

If you want to see a really good street performance, check out this Barcelona performance here. This performer is putting everything he has into the music and the result is much more impressive.

Don't worry, your experience will not be spoiled by watching the video. While the photos in the video are spectacular, the Alhambra is still more amazing in person than any video or photography attempts to make it seem.

The Alhambra has been inspiring generations of visitors. It continues to be among Spain's most popular tourist destinations.
