Inside the monastery's modest façades, the churiguera-style decorations can be found everywhere. The ornate and complex decoration of the monastery is also a major feature. Under the Spanish Baroque Churigra style, the atrium structure with beautiful cloisters is reminiscent of the imagination, white plaster carvings, curved golden stone pillars and vortexes in the chapel. Shaped and leaf-shaped wall decorations always give visitors a strange feeling of being in an exotic place.Granada · 23.3 km from Moclin

Patio de Los Leones
Patio de Los Leones is the main courtyard of thePalace of the Lionsand is widely considered a masterpiece of Nasrid architecture. The courtyard is a long, narrow rectangle oriented east-west, nearly 30 m long and approx. 16 m wide. It is surrounded by a low colonnade supported by over 100 white marble columns, with single columns alternating with groups of two or three, creating a rhythmic pattern of varying density along the arcade. At the north and south ends, square pavilions project into the courtyard, their wooden domes featuring honeycomb-like carvings that some researchers compare to a memory of tent dwellings in the desert. The Fountain of the Lions in the center of the courtyard is the source of its name: a twelve-sided basin is supported by twelve marble lions, with thin streams of water flowing from their mouths. The rim of the basin is inscribed with a poem by the court poet Ibn Zamrak, which likens the Sultan's benevolence to the clear spring water that irrigates the garden. Four water channels extend along the central axes of the courtyard in a cross shape, meeting at the base of the fountain and dividing the marble floor into four sections, corresponding to the traditional Islamic garden imagery of the four rivers of Paradise. The entire courtyard is thus often interpreted as a paradise written in water and colonnades. In the stucco decorations between the capitals and arches, lozenge patterns, vegetal scrolls, geometric motifs, and calligraphic inscriptions are intricately interwoven, while the dado is lined with blue and gold glazed tiles. The halls surrounding the courtyard are renowned for their complex honeycomb vaults; whether looking up at the domes or down at the water channels, one can see scenery different from a mere passing glance.Granada · 25.2 km from Moclin

Beautiful place, rich with history and an abundance of instagrammable shots for the social media moguls. I would advise booking tickets in advance as they sell out and make sure you include the Nasrid palace to it and immerse yourself in the history of these wonderful moorish buildings.

The most beautiful architecture in Alhambra, the most brilliant gem of Islamic civilization. A true World Heritage Site, strolling through the palace gardens is like wandering through the river of history.

San Nicolas Square (Plaza de San Nicolas) is a lively place any time of day, with craftsmen, flamenco dancers, and street musicians setting up along the paving stones to entertain visitors. At dusk, crowds of locals and tourists turn out to watch the sunset over the palace grounds before adjourning to restaurants and tea shops on nearby Elvira Street.

This Moorish building, located in the small city of Granada in southern Spain, is more than 800 years old. It has been built by several generations of kings to its current size. The Alcazaba Fortress overlooking the entire city and the snow-capped mountains, the Nasrid Palace that embodies the ultimate geometric beauty, and the Generalife Summer Palace with a maze-like waterscape courtyard, all have different styles but are equally beautiful, making me feel like I'm in a dream all day.

Lovely experience. So much history in one place. There were lots of renovations as well so be careful, but they are super good with making boundaries so you don’t step anywhere near it. Make sure you put 2 hours for this place and go up to the tower as you get to see the whole of Sevilla from different points of view

Coming out of the Alham Palace Garden, the snowstorm was even stronger. I barely had a good look at the square, typical European-style exterior of the Carlos V Palace before rushing in. I was immediately shocked by the two-story Roman Colosseum-style circular building. I walked around it again and again, up and down, and took photos inside and out.
Carlos V was built in 1527 by the architect Pedro Machuca of Toledo. It is a magnificent Renaissance palace and a very important building in the Spanish Renaissance. Looking down from the air, the whole is square, but it contains an amazing circular double courtyard supported by 32 columns.
The palace can be viewed from different angles.
