The Alhambra is an Andalusian palatine city located in Granada, in Andalusia, Spain. It consists of a set of palaces, gardens and fortress (alcazar or al-qasr القصر) that housed a real citadel within the city of Granada, which served as accommodation to the monarch and the court of the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada. Its true attraction, as in other Muslim works of the time, not only lies in the interiors, whose decoration is among the peaks of Andalusian art, but also in its location and adaptation, generating a new landscape but fully integrated with the pre-existing nature. In 2016 it was the second most visited monument in Spain, receiving the historic figure of 2 615 188 visitors.

Photography Tips

This spot is a really easy one. Just adjust camera parameters and shoot. Cloudy skies use to work better than clear ones but in Andalucía the sun is the king.
