Tourist info: Zirid wallThe part that ran between the Puerta de Monaita and the Puerta de las Pesas is one of the few surviving sections. It is located at the foot of Alcazaba Qadima (old alcazaba) and you can get the best view of it from the Mirador de San Cristóbal.Nasrid wallAs the Albaicín district grew larger in the Nasrid period, the citadel was strengthened with a new defensive fortification. This section (called Muralla Alberzana, meaning ‘orange grove’) starts from the Cuesta de San Antonio and reaches Fajaluza, running parallel to the Carretera de Murcia.
