Introduction Since its establishment, the Patronato has not ceased to publicize Granada tourism products among professional players in the sector and the media. At the same time, it has encouraged businessmen and politicians from the province to carry out activities that impact on the improvement of tourism, services and infrastructure.

The purpose of the Patronato is to publicize the attractions of the province to continue steadily increasing the number of visitors from the different regions.

Being so the tourism market in Granada city is governed mostly by hosting services and restoration.

1. Distribution of tourism in the city center of Granada Tourism Services The Accommodation is Highly concentrated in the downtown area, divided between hotels, guesthouses and inns, which offer a service aimed at a broad sector of the population, as there are a variety of prices.This typology is well needed to enjoy a pleasant stay in the capital, as there is a lot of tourist resources such as monuments and representative places that tourists do not need nor want to miss so must remain more than one day the city. This sector is obviously distributed throughout the province but serves an important concentration in the downtown area.

On the other hand the restoration and the creation of routes and tourism products has enriched the experiences that tourists can find and that, surely, want to share, the Tapas Trail is a good example as is traditional dishes are exploited as broad beans with ham , remojón and gazpacho. All accompanied Alfacar bread. Besides this, in some restaurants and wineries you can buy some of the seven products Designation of Origin or Quality: olive oils from los Montes and the west, green asparagus of Huétor Tájar, honey, ham Trévelez and cherimoya Tropical Coast.

The company engaged in tourism intermediaries, are companies engaged in the organization of tourist services, first-rate professionals whose main objective is the reservation and booking of accommodation in tourist establishments and services or activities offered by tourism businesses .

Travel agencies are scattered throughout the capital as it is necessary that in every neighborhood these tourist products are fleshed out, however, in the downtown area we are the best known and international companies Rural tourism and ecotourism is a type of tourism that has experienced significant growth in recent years, largely because of the need for every citizen of a big city to get away from the hectic and stressful pace of life peace, relaxation being necessary and rest, so as its name indicates occurs in natural areas and in the outskirts of the city center.

For active tourism in Granada are five natural parks spread over the mountains of the province: Sierra Nevada, Sierra de HuĂŠtor, Sierra de Castril, Sierra de Baza and the Sierra de Tejeda, Almijara and Alhama but in the city center there is no company that promotes active tourism.

1. Distribution of tourism in the city center of Granada Activities with an Impact on tourism Granada has related recreation and leisure activities, is the case of the botanical garden located in the center of the city as well as the Teatro Isabel the Catholic and center Federico Garcia Lorca where you can see exhibitions of all time, film , plays etc. Moreover we find the science park, which is still being situated on the outskirts of the center has a high rate of incidence tourist, offering a varied range of activities for all ages and gender.

In connection with activities related to wellbeing this Sector related to new tourism trends where everyone who desire can enjoy some recreational health at the same time, where therapies are used with water, the modalities of pools, hot tubs, whirlpools, water jets and sauna, is a factor minority compared to others but still very important for the tourism sector comfort after a day of visits and concentrated in the downtown area, especially near the Alhambra due to the Muslim tradition of using baths as a means of entertainment.

Flamenco has been declared intangible cultural heritage by Unesco therefore in Andalusia and of course in Granada some are not just what they can venture into the great cultural and festive treasure which is flamenco. deeply rooted in the center of Granada area and even more in central areas of the Alhambra, as the Albaicin or Sacromonte sector.

Companies offering transport services and are buses, tour buses, bicycles or the like to easily move around the city center are concentrated in the center as they must be in an area easily accessible location for tourists . Same goes with taxis, which are usually near the areas most visits as Alhambra or downtown area.

Granada is a city with a prestigious international university, this has caused tourist arrivals of non-Spanish speaking, with the intent to take courses in Spanish. It is this same university that has many courses offer Spanish in the Centro de Lenguas Modernas, besides her in the center of Granada are many schools that offer Spanish courses for foreigners.

2. Classification of tourist services and tourist activities impact Regarding tourism services have had the opportunity to analyze the sector most prominent and almost even with the hosting is the catering sector as it is a large sector spread across the province especially in the city center Most establishments engaged in this activity are small-format enclosures but very different in most cases, making a small division of this sector, we can divide services:

.

GASTRONOMICAL ESTABLISHMENTS Studying the types of resources we have Fast food establishments.

Taverns and wineries typical cuisine.

Ethnic restaurants (Chinese, Indian, Italian, Japanese etc ..)

Restaurants luxury hotel complexes.

HOTEL ESTABLISHMENTS

Hotels (mostly 3 and 4 stars).

Pensions Hostels Stay Hotels

TRANSPORT SERVICES Taxi.

Bus 3City Tour Bus. Play Granada Car rental

observed that the most demanded both by foreign tourists and nationals are taverns and wineries typical cuisine and offering the most typical products of the city, followed by restaurants catering luxury for its central location many of the people who stay often eat them. On the other hand we find ethnic restaurant with a great diversity but these tend to be less in demand. And finally we found a lesser extent local fast food.

As for the accommodation we have seen that hotels of three and four star are the most popular because they are in most central parts of the city center, therefore they are the most requested by tourists.

There is a second group of hotels and hostels one and two stars located in "Bib rambla Square and Elvira Street" these are usually also very defendants are cheaper and offer accommodation and breakfast only.

As for transport services in more defendants are taxis as they are the only ones who can circulate through the city center followed City tour bus that circulates throughout the center stopping at the most important enclaves. Other means are Car Rental and Play Granada that being less known are less in demand but are slowly ascending its large presence in new square, offering its service to tourists

2. Classification of tourist services and tourist activities impact .

LEISURE, ENTERTAINMENT AND RECREATION

Science Park Public Shows Theater Botanical Garden

Among the companies involved in leisure activities we can highlight the science park as it is the most welcome of tourists have different kinds, as well as tourists visiting the city must be added a number of tourists from the province and the autonomous community that comes exclusively to visit. Followed by the botanical garden is also very visited because it is in the center of Granada and is free entry and finally the theaters of the capital.

ACTIVE TOURISM this is Granada Adventure Granada Ecoway Makalu adventures

Active tourism is one of the most popular resources on Granada Capital, being little known and existing intermediary companies that carry out their work in the city center can find different local always close to tourist sites, these gradually being promoted to increase their demand as they are another original form of tourism.

3.New Trends In Tourist Services And Activities Tourist Impact In Granada Regarding our experience in this field work, we have observed that the activity with tourist impact that most stands out among the others is the Leisure, Entertainment and Recreation sector and there is a greater variety spread throughout the city center.

A new trend in these businesses is the company is scape game, where the player must solve some difficult puzzles and use them with objects to find a way out from different mysterious places.

The tourism impact in our opinion is in second place is the sector Activities that promoted spanish language and Flamenco and with respect to these, some new trends in these sectors are chocolaterapia service in spas and language exchange proposals in an active way, the tandem.

In contrast, we believe that Granada should create and promote some kind of leisure activity related to sports services because there is no company of this nature in the city and could become a very attractive tourist product.

4. The ten most important resources in Granada City Center.

1. Alhambra, Generalife, Palace of Charles V and gardens.

It is the most important resource of the city so it is well exploited, clean and care, only remark would certainly be the fact that this resource all propaganda of tourism in Granada takes, leaving others no less important monuments in second and just unbeknownst to the tourism sector.

2. Mirador de San Nicolas.

I appeal much sought after because their peripheral view of the city and the whole of the Alhambra is recommended must-see, in our opinion would have to be a little more controlled area since there tend to be many incidents with tourists, once solved this, if you could give wider dissemination.

3. Cathedral and Royal Chapel.

The Cathedral is well exploited for its wealth of art and its location resource, not the royal chapel just behind that despite its great historical value for buried there real people, not for any known form or exploited touristically as it should.

4. Albayc铆n and Sacromonte.

These very old and typical quarters of Granada are quite exploited for tourism sector due to the roots that have always had with the Roma and the art of flamenco, something highly sought after by tourists from all countries, especially Eastern, perhaps because a form of artistic expression so different from yours.

Our review in this appeal is the same as in the Mirador de San Nicolas, because for some areas of these districts is not only a great tourist volume but also a large number of thefts and incidents and sloppiness recorded with the council leaves these areas, increasingly dirty and damaged.

5. Monastery of St. Jer贸nimo.

The glorious San Jer贸nimo Monastery, located in the heart of the city does not receive much less diffusion should because of its importance and historical beauty, hundreds of tourists and even granadinos walk every day through the gates of this great monument without even knowing the treasure houses inside, so that should be exploited as one of the main resources of the city.

6. Bib-Rambla Place.

One of the most emblematic places of the city, being located next to the cathedral, the royal chapel, the madrassa has become a central square off for tourists where they can find many places to eat, snack churros, buy souvenirs and even flowers in various shops in the square two tourist information kiosks are also located.

4. The ten most important resources in Granada City Center.

7. The Alcaicería.

Right next to the previous one, form a series of narrow streets of Muslim origin where you can buy a host of typical Grenadians and Arab products that over time have come to gather, have quite affordable and tourists love to venture into this place, so we could say that is a great tourist impact.

8. Bañuelo or Hamman.

Leisure and relaxation building located in the historic city center, currently closed for renovations but active is one of the greatest attractions in terms of leisure typical Granada has a large spread between the tourism sector.

9. Basilica de las Angustias.

This is one of the most visited of the city and home to the famous Nuestra señora de las Angustias, patron saint of the city, however we believe that you also should give greater importance in terms of propaganda and tourist route temples not only for its beauty but because it is in the downtown area and it would be very easy and logical to your visit.

10. Paseo de los Tristes.

One of the most emblematic and tourist streets of the city, because it offers breathtaking views of the Alhambra while collected in the same various street tourism products such as snack bars, restaurants, hotels, museums, offices and transport gift shops, so it is entirely well suited to tourists. The only downside is that it is a very narrow street and passing too many vehicles, apart from dangerous is very annoying, should regulate this aspect.
