What you'll see
A walled hilltop of palaces and gardens: halls covered in carved plaster and verses, the Court of the Lions with its fountain, the fortress towers of the Alcazaba with views over the city, and the terraced gardens and water channels of the Generalife.
A brief history
Most of it was built by the Nasrid sultans in the 1300s; in January 1492 the last of them handed Granada to Ferdinand and Isabella, ending Muslim rule in Spain.
