On the very
first week we arrived to Granada we went to see a flamenco show. We are in
Andalucía where this dance originates from and we wanted to see whether we can
detect a difference between this and the show we saw in Barcelona (you can read
about it here). Naturally we couldn’t as we don’t know much about this dance
but the show was still fantastic.
There are
many ‘tablaos’, places where you can see flamenco and all of them are touristic
so it doesn’t matter really which one you choose, I think all of them will be
an unforgettable experience. We chose the Casa del Arte Flamenco as it was
highly rated by others on Tripadvisor.
When we
arrived we were all ushered in a room and sat quite close to the stage. As soon
as the first cord was strung on the guitar, the first note was sang and the
first stamp was done on the floor we were all transfixed on the show and we
couldn’t take our eyes off of the performers. They really gave their all and
the passion was just indescribable. There was so much energy in that little
room! We could only take photos during the last performance and no videos were
allowed. Here are some moments of the show.
As I said
there are many places to see a show but if you’d like to go to this particular
‘tablao’ you can find it under Cuesta de Gomérez, 11.
Our next
stop in Spain will be Seville. Watch this space to see a blog about the famous
flamenco style, the ‘Sevillana’.
