Alhambra

Perched on a hill in Granada in southern Spain, the Alhambra was first built in the 13th century and is a palace and fortress complex that survives to this day from the Nasrid dynasty on the Iberian Peninsula. The complex consists mainly of the Alcazaba fortress, the Nasrid Palaces, and the Generalife, surrounded by towering stone walls, and its interior blends two distinctly different styles: Islamic architecture and Renaissance architecture. The Generalife was the summer palace of its time, known for its terraced gardens and water channels, and is connected to the main palace by a tree-lined promenade. The Nasrid Palaces are the core of the entire architectural complex. The Court of the Lions is centered on a fountain supported by twelve stone lions, with four water channels extending in four directions, making it a classic work of Islamic courtyard architecture. The Court of the Myrtles reflects the Comares Palace in a pool of clear water, serene and elegant. The stalactite-like decoration on the dome of the Hall of the Two Sisters is one of the finer parts of the palace, and the walls are covered with Arabic inscriptions, including both Quranic verses and the poems of court poets, reflecting the aesthetic sensibilities of the Nasrid dynasty throughout. Climbing the tower at the western end of the Alcazaba fortress offers a panoramic view of Granada centered on the cathedral. The Palace of Charles V is a Renaissance-style palace built after the Christian reconquest of Granada. Its exterior is square, yet a unique circular courtyard is embedded within, surrounded by a two-story colonnade—Doric on the lower level and Ionic on the upper. The ground floor houses the Alhambra Museum, displaying large tin-glazed ceramic vases from the Nasrid period, among which the 14th-century "Gazelle Vase" is particularly exquisite in craftsmanship. The upper floor is the Museum of Fine Arts of Granada, housing Spanish paintings from the 16th century onward, with numerous religious-themed works.

Seville Cathedral

Seville Cathedral is one of the larger Gothic cathedrals in the world. Its site was originally occupied by a great mosque built during the Moorish rule. In the early 15th century, it was demolished and rebuilt on the mosque's foundation as a Gothic Catholic cathedral, taking more than a century to complete. The cathedral's main altar features a giant golden carved wooden altarpiece, a masterpiece of Gothic woodcarving art, presenting the life of Jesus and the deeds of the Virgin Mary through dozens of reliefs. The cathedral also houses the tomb of the navigator Columbus, whose coffin is held aloft by four statues of kings symbolizing Castile, León, Aragon, and Navarre respectively, making it a must-see iconic view for visitors. The church houses religious paintings such as Murillo's "The Apparition of Saint Anthony" and Goya's "Saints Justa and Rufina," displayed respectively in the Chapel of Saint Anthony and the sacristy. The Giralda Tower is another major highlight of the church. This bell tower, originally the minaret of a mosque, retains the Moorish architectural style and stands about 100 m tall. Following the gentle ramp inside, visitors can climb to the top and enjoy a panoramic view of Seville's old town. Although reaching the top requires some physical effort, the view is expansive, and on a clear day the cityscape of Andalusia can be taken in at a glance.
