The Alhambra is one of Europe’s most visited attractions.
Located in southern Spain, in the city of Granada, the original Alhambra complex was
built in the 9th century, then rebuilt by the moors in the 11th century.
Slowly the Alhambra was transformed and by the mid-1300’s was a palace as well as a
fortress.
After the moors were defeated, the Alhambra continually evolved under subsequent monarchs
and therefore boasts both Muslim and Christian architecture.
The detail throughout the Alhambra is undeniably extraordinary but delicate.
Because of this, the number of visitors to the Alhambra are limited so you will need
to get your ticket in advance and you must have the printed copy with the barcode. Each
visitor to Alhambra’s palace has an allotted time that you are allowed to enter, make sure
you don’t miss it.

Also, when your finished your tour be sure to take a seat in one of Granada’s many
cafe’s to enjoy a view of the Alhambra from a distance!
