Nestling at the foot of the Sierra Nevada Mountains and arguably the finest example of Arab architecture in the whole of Spain, the palace and its gardens were built as a re-creation of ‘heaven on earth’, with cool courtyards, tinkling fountains and intricate carvings perfectly preserved.

Explore the opulent royal reception rooms and harem. Visit the Fortress of Alcazaba for breath-taking views over the city, and wander in the glorious gardens of Generalife with their stately trees, tranquil pools and perfumed plants.

The Alhambra is Spain’s most visited attraction and only limited entrance tickets are granted per day.
