Granada: Alhambra and Generalife
The Alhambra was the last Moorish fortress standing until the fall of the Moors in 1492. It was then taken over by Catholic royalty. It is an amazing site, so beautiful in its decoration, so peaceful in its simple use of natural elements such as water, air, plant, and earth. It helps to have a good tour guide to help you maneuver through the many mazes of this complex. Mere words cannot adequately describe this place, so just admire these simple pictorial representations of this magnificent site.
