Alhambra

 

This landmark is Alhambra, located in the city of Granada. Muhammad I Ibn al-Ahma, the first ruler of the Emirate of Granada, commissioned the palace’s construction in 1238. Future Nasrid rulers continuously added to the site, with the most noteworthy additions completed in the 14th century under YSUF I and Muhammad V. When Christians controlled the area, King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella used the site as a Royal Court. After centuries of neglect, restoration began in the nineteenth century onward. Today, the palace is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country, and people widely praise it for its Moorish architecture.
