The World Heritage-listed Alhambra and Generalife complex is Granada’s most symbolic, famous and visited landmark. Citadel, fortress and palace of the monarchs of the Nazarí dynasty, its rooms and gardens are Europe’s most typical expression of Muslim art.
Due to the size of the complex and the captivating beauty of its rooms, a visit will take at least two and a half hours. It’s more or less essential to book in advance, especially during busy periods. A night-time visit is a superb alternative for those who are already familiar with the landmark and wish to experience the new smells, sounds and images awakened by night in the Alhambra.
