Currently there are handicraft shops from Granada, where you can find the local Fajalauza ceramics and the famous inlaid wood, leather goods stalls, Spanish mantillas and combs shops, miniature nativity scenes and Easter thrones. In the Zacatín and its adjoining streets you will find clothing and shoe stores, bookstores, cafeterias, ice cream parlors and restaurants and almost everything. You will also be able to appreciate the Moorish past of the city in the Calderería popularly known as Calle de las Teterías, an area of pedestrian streets in the lower Albaicín full of bazaars where you can still haggle. Here you can buy those little gifts and also enjoy an aromatic tea and Arab cakes in one of the various Andalusian tea shops and try the delicious Arab cakes any afternoon. In the Albaycin we will be able to discover the origin of the city and enjoy its corners and viewpoints such as the Mirador de San Nicolás that will make us enjoy panoramic views of enormous beauty. It is a neighborhood with clear differentiating elements due to its Muslim origin, one of which is its narrow and winding streets and another its beautiful Cármenes, Arab and Moorish houses and Christian manor houses.
