When people talk about Spanish palaces, they might think of the Royal Palace in Madrid. However, those who have been to Spain would know that the Alhambra Palace is the one truly worth visiting. Located in the small town of Granada in southern Spain, the Alhambra Palace was left behind from the period when Spain was ruled by the Arab Moors. For someone from East Asia, who is completely unfamiliar with the Arab world, visiting for the first time is truly overwhelming. The palace is situated on a hill, offering a panoramic view of the entire area below. Make a special trip to Granada to see the Alhambra. I've been there three times! And I would still want to go back if I get the chance. 🤣 Additionally, one of the unique features of Granada is that you get free tapas when you order wine or drinks.

#palace #100 ways to travel Because of the Korean drama "Memories of Alhambra" starring Won Bin, this royal palace built by the Spanish Moorish dynasty #Alhambra Palace has become popular among Asian tourists and is a must-see when traveling to Granada. Pilgrimages, especially the Palacios Nazaríes, are hard to get tickets for, even more so than concert tickets! Alhambra, which means the Red Castle in Arabic, was included in the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage List in 1984 and witnessed the glorious period of Islamic culture. The Alhambra covers a large area, and the entire palace complex can be divided into four major areas to visit: Alcazaba, Nasrid Palaces, Generalife Gardens, Carlos V Palace and surrounding areas Area Palacio de Carlos V & Around. The Islamic-style palace architecture is really beautiful. The reflection of the Moorish palace reflected in the garden pool is so beautiful that it cannot be seen from a distance. From the pillars, walls to beams, everything is exquisitely crafted and magnificent. The Palacio de los Leone, surrounded by 12 lions, is the most gorgeous area in the Nasr Palace. Climbing the tower of Alcaja Castle, you can overlook the cityscape of Granada. The white buildings on the top of the hill are quite spectacular. There are also beautiful Generalife gardens, which are like entering Alice's Wonderland. It is well worth the time. Enjoy it slowly the previous day. # SPAINTRAVEL #ANDALUSIA #GRANADA #ALHAMBRA #NASRALPATH #PALACE #100WAYS TO TRAVEL

While the alhambra palace is the main highlight of a Granada tour for most tourists. I, having stayed and experienced much more in the form of day trips and other sights in town, would even recommend alhambra for a longer than the usual night or two. For instance, you should definitely visit St. Nicholas, it gives an amazing view of the city and one of the most romantic sites in Europe. How would you like to see a flamenco show inside a cave? Yes, I did that in Granada. Walk through the hills opposite the Alhambra. This gives stunning views of the moorish castle and surrounding areas. Also, these hills have some beautiful little streets, and tiny little plazas with tapas bars, street musicians and dogs.You could fall in love with Spain walking through these hills, and the best place to be at sunset, is right at the top. Lastly, Granada's location allows you the luxury of easy access to rest of Andalusia. The epic scenery, the good food and so many options is all the more reason to stay in Granada. #myhiddengems #europe #summerdestinations #granada #cherryblossom2024 #100waysoftravel #spain

I'm so tired of this place.. I keep thinking about it... The flower of Spain. You have to go there without fail! 📍Granada Alhambra Palace Forget about buying tickets when you go.. You have to make a reservation in advance to avoid risks! #You can make a reservation 3 months in advance 🔻Integrated ticket 19.09 euros 🔻Generalife Gardens 10.61 euros 🔻Nasrid Palaces 10.61 euros We bought a combined ticket! Wow... We left at dawn (the sky was really blue at dawn) and after we went around, the sunlight was shining brightly. It was so cold in the morning I went there shivering, but here... . The weather seems to be very important. If only the weather is good... . No matter where or how you take a picture, it's all spectacular... . It's so big that there are so many places to see, but you have to keep walking! Make sure to wear comfortable shoes. There are Spanish-style buildings here and there. They are hidden photo spots! The details on the walls are so detailed that I could say they are disgusting. I wondered how they made this 100 times. There are many rooms and palaces. If you have time, take a tour. I personally think it would be good to go around on your own! I thought that taking a tour would take a long time and you might get a little tired?! I think it would be good to take a self-guided tour if you take your time taking pictures and looking around here and there. #Please share this a lot with your friends who want to go to the Alhambra Palace! If you share, you will definitely go💘

I went to Granada, famous for the Alhambra Palace ✨ The palace was quite crowded, and even though I had purchased tickets in advance, I had to line up to enter the Nasrid Palace 😭 It's quite hot in the summer, so water and a hat and parasol are essential! ...

"No city is like Granada, with its elegance and smile, its shimmering Eastern charm, spreading under the clear sky." - Victor Hugo Colorful Granada is located in the Andalusia region in southern Spain. The collision and fusion of Roman, Moorish, and Jewish cultures in the river of history have given birth to the brilliant culture unique to Granada. Here is also the filming location for "Game of Thrones" and the Korean drama "Memories of the Alhambra". The Alhambra turns stones into poetry, a love letter to Moorish architecture, and a magnificent paradise on earth. The Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain is magnificent, serving as both a palace and a castle, as well as a well-constructed garden and a military fortress during the "Reconquista". Built 700 years ago, this red palace still occasionally makes headlines in European newspapers, and is considered the most perfect architectural model from ancient Rome to the present day, adding a unique charm to the European continent.

Background information ℹ️: Granada is one of the important and ancient cities in Andalusia in Spain. The Alhambra is a palace and fortress combined with beautiful Islamic architecture and decorations. Apart from the typical arch one can see in the beautiful buildings, the restaurants, lamps, writings are also full of Arabic flavour. Within Alhambra you can easily find Arabic calligraphy and decorations. The lookout of Alhambra requires a ticket and it can be sold out before its closing time, so it is advised that one arrives in the morning. #andalusia #spain #architecture #alhamb #granada

Located jn Granada, Spain, Alhambra is a palace and fortress complex. It has always been our dream destination as it is one of the most famous palaces of the historic Islamic world. We flew in to Malaga and took a 2-hour bus to Granada for a day trip. Granada is smaller but more touristy than Malaga so the price of accommodation is slightly more expensive. However, if you want to spend a few days exploring Granada, it will be better to stay here. Do check out the official website of The Alhambra before visiting so you can be sure of the opening hours. It is also important to make up your mind of what do you want to visit, as there are different prices for different places (fortress or place or garden). The combo tickets are reasonable if you have plenty of time in hands. #bucketlistreboot #passionpassport

The fascinating Alhambra Alhambra is the royal palace of the Granada kingdom established by the medieval Moors in Spain. Arabic means red fort. After the Moors were expelled from Spain, the building began to be abandoned. Later, with the support of Ferdinand VII, the architects Jose Contreras and other long-term repairs and reconstructions restored the original features. We booked tickets for the Nasri Palace at 2 pm (you must make an appointment, otherwise you will be queued at 6 o'clock in the morning, after all, there is a limit for the number of people in each time period). At 12 o'clock, you have already arrived at the scenic spot, thinking about it. Let's go to other free places to see. As a result, neither the Summer Palace nor the Fort Akasaba will be allowed. Only the Carlos V Palace can. So booked 2 tickets, all paid attractions must be 2 o'clock before entering. Although Nasirs Palace, Akasaba Fort and Summer Palace are separate attractions, as long as they meet the visit time, it is completely OK to go out from one toll attraction and then go to another toll attraction. Remember that each toll attraction cannot be used. Going in again, the staff at the door were very careful to check the ticket. Introduce some personal favorite spots. The design of the palace must first mention: How did the glass not be used in ancient times? The Moors used a very laborious but extravagant way to cut out a honeycomb window! If a person quietly stays in a closed space for a whole day, watching the sun cast the shape of the light hole on a dim roof or wall, moving with the sun's trajectory, it is good to feel the passage of time. Experience. The myrtle atrium is enclosed by marble columns, with a shallow, flat rectangular reflecting pool and a beautiful central fountain. Two rows of myrtle hedges lined up on the side of the pool, which is also the source of the name of the atrium. The lion atrium is said to be the place where Alfonso XI and his lover have fun, and she is legendary the most beautiful woman in Spain. From the castle you can look out over the Sierra Nevada. The Henry Lofer Garden consists of two groups of buildings connected by a canal atrium, all of which are fairly stable, simple and simple. This means that when the king retires, he longs for the garden to provide an intimate and tranquil atmosphere. There are only some decorative patterns of stucco, which are not too exaggerated, but still show exquisiteness and taste. The summer garden is very beautiful and offers panoramic views of the palace. In addition, it is recommended to go to the Nicholas Lookout to enjoy the palace at sunset, beautiful!

The Alhambra Palace is located in Granada and is a must-see for travel in Spain. I won't say this before I go, but after I finish, I am sure to say: I won't regret it! ! ! After writing the travel notes, many friends have just commented on the "Reminiscences of the Alhambra". Although I have not seen this drama, I must strongly enrich the palace! Before I went online, I checked the Alhambra. There were very few photos taken. I didn't expect much from this attraction, but it was the most amazing sight in Spain. Ticket prices are also very conscience compared to other palaces and famous attractions. is also a medieval Islamic building, even for me who have been to India, it was amazing by this palace. Going to Spain strongly recommends that you must go to the sights, it is worth spending a day in it. It can be said that if you have been to the A Palace, then you will go to other palaces to be floating clouds... Address: Calle Real de la Alhambra

The Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain, is one of the most famous Moorish architectural landmarks in the world and one of Spain's most iconic historical sites. This magnificent palace and fortress complex is not only a symbol of the power of the Moorish dynasty but also a pinnacle of Islamic architectural art, blending exquisite decorations, outstanding architectural techniques, and profound historical and cultural heritage. During my visit to the Alhambra Palace, I was deeply impressed by the historical atmosphere, artistic value, and unique charm of this palace. First, the architectural style of the Alhambra Palace amazed me. The architectural style of this palace complex is typical of Moorish architecture, incorporating elements of Islamic, Christian, and Jewish cultures. This diverse fusion gives the Alhambra Palace a unique artistic charm. The exterior of the palace is based on red soil, which is also the origin of the name Alhambra (meaning 'Red Fortress' in Arabic). Standing outside the palace, looking at the red buildings and the surrounding mountains, I couldn't help but marvel at the harmonious combination of nature and human architecture. Upon entering the palace area, I was struck by the intricate details before me. The walls, arches, windows, and floors of the Alhambra Palace are adorned with Islamic geometric patterns and floral motifs. These complex decorations are not only visually stunning but also reveal the deep understanding of mathematics, geometry, and art by Moorish architects. Especially in the Hall of the Abencerrajes and the Hall of the Throne, the exquisite reliefs and mosaic patterns made me feel the unique charm of Islamic art, with every detail reflecting the ultimate pursuit of beauty. One of the most famous parts of the Alhambra Palace is its courtyards, particularly the Patio de los Leones, one of the most iconic spots in the palace. Entering this courtyard, I was captivated by the white marble columns and the lion fountain. The central fountain features twelve intricately carved lions, symbolizing strength and protection. The design of the pool showcases the Moorish architects' skill in using water, with the water flowing calmly over the marble floor, and the columns and windows around reflecting light and shadow, creating a mysterious and tranquil atmosphere. In addition to the courtyards, the interior decorations of the Alhambra Palace are equally impressive. The walls of the palace are almost entirely covered with intricate floral patterns and Arabic inscriptions. These patterns are not only artistic presentations but also symbolize faith and culture. Especially the ceiling decorations in the Hall of the Two Sisters, with their delicate wood carvings and beautiful mosaic patterns, evoke a sense of serenity and sanctity, as if time has frozen in these patterns. Moreover, the historical background of the Alhambra Palace also left me in awe. The palace was initially built in the 13th century by the order of Muhammad I and gradually developed into a vast palace and fortress complex. It was the royal palace of the Nasrid dynasty and became one of the most splendid palaces in Spain during the long Moorish rule. However, with the Christian Reconquista, the Alhambra Palace underwent many changes, especially after 1492 when King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain conquered Granada, altering the palace's function and structure. This historical background gave me a deeper understanding of the Alhambra Palace, which is not just a building but a witness to the intersection of religions, cultures, and history. During the visit, I not only appreciated its architectural aesthetics but also gained a deeper understanding of the culture and history behind the palace. Every courtyard, every sculpture, and every pool seemed to tell the historical story of the Alhambra Palace. Especially in the 'Military Zone' and the 'Moorish Garden,' I could imagine the lives of the rulers and nobles of the past, feeling the grandeur and prosperity of the palace. At the end of the visit, I sat on the terrace of the Alhambra Palace, gazing at the distant city of Granada and the snow-capped mountains. At that moment, the palace was not only a witness to history but also a place full of cultural heritage and spiritual significance. The Alhambra Palace made me realize that architecture is not just a functional existence but also a crystallization of culture and art, carrying not only the power of emperors but also the spirit and wisdom of a nation. In summary, the Alhambra Palace is not only one of the greatest buildings in Spain but also one of the most influential cultural heritage sites in the world. Its architectural aesthetics, intricate details, and rich historical connotations make this palace one of the most unforgettable experiences of my travels. Standing on this historic land, I deeply felt the charm of this palace and was in awe of it.
