Lonely Planet review for Torre de la Vela

The ramparts and several towers are all that remain of the citadel. The most important is the Torre de la Vela, with a winding staircase to its top terrace, which has splendid views. The cross and banners of the Reconquista were raised here in January 1492. In the past the tower's bell chimes controlled the irrigation system of Granada's fertile plain, the Vega.
