Alhambra / Granada

Alhambra is a palace and fortress complex of the Moorish rulers of Granada in southern Spain . Reflection of the Alhambra . The literal translation of Alhambra "red fortress" derives from the colour of the red clay of the surroundings of which the fort is made. The buildings of the Alhambra were originally whitewashed; however, the buildings now seen today are reddish.

The Tower of Justice (Torre de la Justicia) is the original entrance gate to the Alhambra, built by Yusuf I in 1348.






























Palacio de Generalife or Gineralife .
























Had breakfast before we start our day to the Alhambra . Egg and cheese sandwich and tortilla which is not the same as the USA tortilla but it is an omelette with stir-fried potatoes and chopped onion .
