Store dele af Spanien var arabisk domineret i flere hundrede hundrede år, og et af de mest imponerende og velbevarede levn fra dengang er Alhambra, der i realiteten er en hel lille by bestående af paladser, haver, helligdomme og fæstningsværker. Alhambra ligger på et plateau over Granada og er områdets ubetingede turistmagnet. Billedet her er fra El Generalife som er et lystslot i tilknytning til Alhambra.

A significant part of southern Spain was dominated and ruled by arab kings for several hundred years, and Alhambra is one of the most impressive and best preserved remains from that part of the Spanish history. Alhambra is located on a plateau over the city of Granada and is in reality a small town consisting of palaces, gardens, sanctuarys and fortifications. This picture is from El Generalife, which is a palace just outside Alhambra.
