Palacios Nazaries

At exactly 10:30am we entered this famous Moorish Alhambra Palace built on the 14 Century. I had visited here before while working in Almeria but not entered the palace. The walls are molded plaster which originally were painted and the ceilings are carved wood. There are many wooden screens behind which the women sat not to be seen! The picture below is the Courtyard of the Myrtles. The next picture is of the Courtyard of the Lions.
The Alhambra is located high on a hill. A nearby river was redirected to provide a plentiful supply of water.
