Arco De Las Pesas (literally Gate of the Weights) is located just off Plaza Larga, a striking Islamic gateway defensive wall. The archway is built with stone from the city of Malahá and was built in the eleventh century.
Do & See
It is possible to explore the city on foot. The pace of life here is different: get used to long leisurely lunches, and decadent afternoon naps called siestas. All of Granada sleeps during this time, so it is difficult to avoid becoming part of the life and routine here.
