Alhambra Palace

Spain is no stranger to beauty and the Alhambra Palace in Granada is not one to be left out. This incredible palace was built in the 9th century by the Romans. It was mostly forgotten until the Muslims took control of it during the 14th century, converting it into the beautiful palace that it is today.

The most impressive parts of the palace, in my opinion, had to be the gardens in Generalife. Attempting to create a paradise on earth, Muslims would plant a huge variety of flowers and fruit trees. Still being maintained to this day, the gardens of the Alhambra Palace are a sight to see, as they are filled with such color and life.



The Alhambra also offered an amazing view of Granada below, as you can see the town unfold in front of you. The skies were clear, the mountains in the background and the white buildings below all made for an amazing experience that I wouldn't trade for the world.
