The Alhambra: A Visual Tour
The Alhambra, in Granada, Spain, is a complex consisting of both Moorish and Roman palaces. The tour takes about three hours and is very interesting. I particularly liked the Moorish architecture. Very beautiful! Historical records indicate that the Alhambra dates from the 9th century AD. Plaque on the outside wall. View of the entrance to the complex from above. The entrance into the complex.
