Alhambra - Granada

Alhambra (Arabic, the red) includes a palace complex and an alcazar (al-Ksar) located in the southeast of Granada in Andalucía. It housed the monarchs of the Nasri dynasty, lords of the Kingdom of Granada until 1492. The decoration of the palace represents the best of Islamic art in the Iberian Peninsula. Charles V decided to build a palace inside the enclosure (1527).
