Alhambra

Before this trip, I never heard of the city of Granada. My friend arranged the travel plans and I was introduced to this hidden jewel of Spain. The second day in Granada we visited the palaces of Alhambra, the Islamic royal palaces and fortress complex built in the 14th century. As you can see in the photos, the view from the mountain is gorgeous and the palace is full of exotic beauty with all the Islamic architects. There were the fountain of lions, the garden of general life,  the filigree walls and the marble columns. I hope you enjoyed the photos, see you on my next post!!

Parador Granada

After two short days in Barcelona, we flew to the south and started our Andalusia trip. The first stop was Granda, the multicultural city with the famous moorish palaces "Alhambra." We stayed in the beautiful and luxurious "Parador de Granada", a hotel that was converted from part of the moorish palace and mosque built between 1332 and 1354. The room was lovely with an amazing view of the famous buildings that makes up the Alhambra site; the garden is so charming with the small fountain and all the ruins, which we took lots of pictures of.   

After checked in we took a walk downtown Granada, found lots of interesting Arabic souvenir shops and a great bar for local "Alhambra" beer. Hope you enjoy the photos, see you soon with more of the breathtaking palaces in Alhambra!!
