Alhambra Palace
The Alhambra Palace is a stunning palace and fortress complex located in Granada, Spain. It was originally constructed as a small fortress in 889 and then largely ignored until its ruins were renovated and rebuilt in the mid-13th century by the Moorish rulers of the Emirate of Granada. The palace complex is renowned for its intricate Islamic architecture, which includes a variety of decorative elements such as arabesques, calligraphy, and geometric patterns. The palace is also home to a number of gardens, courtyards, and fountains, as well as a number of towers and gates. The Alhambra Palace is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is one of the most visited tourist attractions in Spain.
