Grenada Antique Maps

Grenada Antique Maps - When Christopher Columbus sailed by Grenada in 1498, he named the island Concepcion. But Spanish sailors found its lush beauty so reminiscent of the green hills of Andalusia that they choose the name Grenada to honor the city of Granada in Spain. This island is truly abounding in natural beauty such as waterfalls, rainforests and one of the most hauntingly lovely mountain lakes one could imagine. Little wonder it is sought out by travelers worldwide as a spot to bask in the artistry the earth creates. Grenada Antique Map measures 18" x 22 3/4".
