Guided tour of the Albaicín, the historic heart of Granada
Tuesday, September 9th
19.00 – 20.00
Meeting point: Mirador de San Cristóbal / Carretera de Murcia
Granada
The Albaicín is the oldest neighbourhood of Granada. It is notable for its historic monuments and for largely retaining its medieval street plan dating back to the Nasrid period (13th to 15th centuries). It was declared a World Heritage Site in 1994, as an extension of the historic site of the nearby Alhambra.
We leave at 19.00 from the Mirador de San Cristóbal in Carreterar de Murcia and continue along San Bartolomé to Plaza Larga and Arco de las Pesas to reach the Mirador de San Nicolas. We will go down the Mirador de Morayma to the Paseo de los Tristes, Chancillería and Plaza Nueva to go to the Cathedral and Alcaiceria, finishing our visit in the Plaza Bibrambla.

As president of the ISSI (International Society for Scientometrics and Informetrics) I highly welcome the esss initiative. The advantages and opportunities arising from collaboration and participation by members of several leading European institutes are manifold. Surely, students and workers in the field will benefit greatly, not only from the contents of the courses themselves but also by participating in a network of interested parties.
I wish all involved a successful partnership.
