The amazing landmark Nasrid Palaces 🕌
Having recently visited the Nasrid Palaces in the Alhambra, I was utterly mesmerized by the breathtaking beauty and historical significance of this architectural marvel. From the moment I stepped into the palaces, I was transported back in time to the era of the Nasrid dynasty, experiencing firsthand the grandeur and sophistication of Islamic art and architecture. 🕰️
Walking through the intricate corridors and ornate rooms, I was captivated by the exquisite stucco work, intricate arabesques, and beautiful calligraphy that adorned every surface. Each room seemed to tell a story of a bygone era, with no detail overlooked in creating a harmonious and breathtaking aesthetic. 🖼️
One of the highlights of my visit was the Court of the Lions, a stunning courtyard surrounded by columns adorned with intricate carvings and a central fountain supported by twelve marble lions. This courtyard was a true masterpiece, and I could only imagine the skill and artistry that went into creating such a magnificent work of art. 🦁
As I explored further, I was struck by the breathtaking views of the Alhambra complex and the city of Granada from the windows and balconies. These views added another layer of beauty to the experience, showcasing the strategic location of the palaces and their importance in the history of the region. 🌆
In conclusion, my visit to the Nasrid Palaces was a truly unforgettable experience. It not only deepened my appreciation for Islamic art and architecture but also gave me a glimpse into a fascinating period of history.

The Mighty Alhambra palace, Granada
Alhambra Palace, Grenada, Andalusia Spain
The Alhambra palace is a fascinating landmark and icon of southern Spain, a must see if you are traveling within Andalusia. Easily accessible by high speed rail or motorway Granada itself is a beautiful city worth visiting, with it’s hilltop palace the crowing glory.
At over 1800 years old this magnificent palace is a combination of architectural styles and features as the palace changed hands so many times between Christans and Muslims. It is one of the most in tact examples of medieval Islamic architecture and it is something you have to see to believe.
Starting at the bottom you can take side streets from central Granda that give way to a cobbled path that starts the boundaries of the palace grounds. Working your way up the hill you can see the sheer scale of the building before you.
Within the grounds there are various different buildings to explore, each with their own historical and architectural story and identity. Along with it these buildings offer stunning views of the city below and the surrounding areas.
There are plenty of toilets, gift shops and places to buy snacks and beverages but the palace does get overwhelmed by tour groups at times. I went early on a weekday morning so managed to avoid the rush, but by about 11 the place was very full. Certain areas are only accessible with tickets but the majority of the grounds and lesser known buildings are free to enter.
I didn’t get the tickets to access all areas but still managed to see plenty of areas within the grounds. There is also a car park on site but again that gets very busy and it is quite expensive compared to the area, best option is to drive into the city or get public transport and make your way into the palace on foot

The Beauty of Alhambra!
The Alhambra is a palace and fortress complex located in Granada, Andalusia, Spain. It is one of the most famous monuments of Islamic architecture and one of the best-preserved palaces of the historic Islamic world, in addition to containing notable examples of Spanish Renaissance architecture.
It reflects the tradition of Moorish architecture developed over previous centuries. It is characterized by the use of the courtyard as a central space and basic unit around which other halls and rooms were organized. Courtyards typically had water features at their center, such as a reflective pool or a fountain.
Decoration was focused on the inside of the building and was executed primarily with tile mosaics on lower walls and carved stucco on the upper walls. Geometric patterns, vegetal motifs, and Arabic inscriptions were the main types of decorative motifs. Additionally, "stalactite"-like sculpting, known as muqarnas, was used for three-dimensional features like vaulted ceilings
Getting There - You can take one of the red minibuses called Alhambra Bus, routes C30 or C32. They leave every 8-12 minutes from Isabel Católica Square (Columbus monument).

Nice hotel to relax
#alhambra #Thalasso hotel was great. I enjoyed a lovely, peaceful weekend. The accommodation was vast, clean, and had a view of the sea; the receptionists were adorable. There's a large covered pool and a complimentary sauna. While the restaurant wasn't awful, it lacked variety.
