The Alhambra Vacation Packages and Tours

The Alhambra, situated in Granada, Spain served as the palace and fortress of the Moorish rulers. Its name "Alhambra," meaning "the red" in Arabic, likely stems from the reddish hue of its outer walls built from rammed earth. This architectural marvel features a unique design characterized by quadrangular buildings surrounding a central courtyard. What's fascinating is that subsequent Emirs maintained this style, adding quadrangular rooms interconnected by smaller passages to create a paradise-like atmosphere.

Due to its popularity, the Alhambra attracts throngs of visitors daily, often leading to sold-out tickets weeks or even months in advance. To avoid disappointment, it's advisable to purchase tickets as early as possible.
