I think one of the major reasons people visit Granada is to see Alhambra and it is a very worthwhile sight to see.
I know there is a difference but Alhambra gave me a another earworm – Lady Gaga's Alejandro.
Alhambra is a vast palace and fortress. It is considered the pinnacle of Moorish architecture and was built in the 13th and 14th century. Not only was it a fortress and palace – but there were gardens, gardens and more gardens. At Alhambra's prime, there were 2,000 people living on the grounds.
