What travelers say:

Many people call this place a castle, and see it for themselves, it feels more appropriate to call it a bunker. Alcazaba is a military building, located at the bow of the Alhambra, the earliest building in the palace. Among them are the tower of reverence, weapons gate, watch tower, broken wall tower, sultan tower, training ground and gunpowder tower and many other buildings. The watch tower is the most bow, board the platform of this tower, look around, the view is very wide. From the bow, the inner city of Granada is unobstructed, while from the other side you can see Mount Nevada. Nevada means "snow mountain" in Spanish, a Spanish ski resort. I have been told that there are several important cities in Spain that must be visited, including Granada in the south, which is famous for castles, palaces and churches. From Barcelona Airport, take Ryanair's flight at 6:45 in the morning, flight one hour and 45 minutes to Malaga Airport, ticket 9.9 euros. There are also direct flights from Fuling Airlines to Granada in Spain, which are generally more expensive. Then take the bus directly from the airport to Granada for two and a half hours, with a fare of 12 euros. After arriving at Granada, first go to the booked hotel to drop off your luggage, then take the bus to the main attraction of the trip, the Alhambra Palace, (because the Alhambra is built on the mountain, so it is not recommended to walk), take an afternoon to stroll around this most famous southern Spain The palace complex (because of the protection of historical buildings, the number of tourists is limited, it is recommended that you buy tickets on the official website in advance). Alhambra (Arabic: الحمراء‎, Latin: Al amr'; Red Castle, Red Palace, Spanish: Alhambra) is an ancient mosque, palace and castle complex built during the Yumer Dynasty in the southern Spanish city of Granada. The original site was built with a fortress called Al- Andalus, the palace was built by the former King of Granada Moors and is now a Muslim building and cultural museum. In 1232, the existing scale was gradually formed on the basis of the old city's transformation. There are 30 meters high stone walls outside the palace wall. There are two main buildings: a group of "Pomegranate Court" The courtyard, another group is the "Lion Courtyard". The first generation of the Nazr dynasty (Spanish: Nazarí) (Nasrid dynasty) who ruled Granada, built Alambra, which was called the "son of the Red Man" by Muhammad, and the palace is also called the "Red Palace". As a masterpiece of the perfect combination of Islamic secular architecture and gardening skills and excellent representative of the Arab palace courtyard architecture, it was selected in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1984. The Alhambra has a strong Moorish cultural characteristics and is called Yi. Slan art is a Spanish gem. It consists of a series of courtyards, patios and houses, with intricate mosaic walls and ceiling designs that make the layout of the palace very luxurious. The Alhambra is known as the world's beautiful Arabian palace, divided into emperors The palace, Carlos V Palace, Castle and Summer Palace are four parts. The palace is beautifully built, and the hall is full of beautiful and meticulous Arab sculptures. The summer palace has Arab gardens, green trees, fountains dotted with it, and the walls are covered with honeysuckle vines. There are benches under the shade, While resting, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery. Muslim life, especially religious activities, cannot be separated from water. The water view is an important part of the Alhambra Palace, full of flowing and moving charm. Arab water view architecture and Chinese water view architecture show different tastes. Chinese gardens, many Large lakes and small ponds, bridges, gongs, pavilions and other waterfront buildings or framed on the water, or by the water, are irregular, pay attention to natural nature. The Alhambra Palace is built on the ridge, which determines that it can only lead water into the palace, relying on careful design to guide the direction of the water, relying on fineness. Calculate to control the amount of water, the waterway is bright and dark, the design of the waterway and the water scene reflects the characteristics of balanced symmetry. The pool is roughly rectangular and circular. The rectangular is large and equipped with a symmetric water spraying device. The pool reflects the shadow of the building, such as the myrtle atrium. Round water The pool is small, some are two floors, and the upper floor can be sprayed with water. There is a small round pool similar to the white jade made in the hall, and the flowing "tap water" even leads to the king's bedside palace. In the lion's courtyard, the running water slowly spit out of the lion's mouth. Arabs' application of water, more Careful of its practical function and aesthetic shape of the clever combination, dotted its building, more use of the characteristics of water, adjust the temperature and humidity. Water along the ditch waterway from the garden to the bedding palace, from high to low, tossing, everywhere, let the whole palace be smart, all tenderness. Torre Vigia De Cerro Gordo
