You may also take a free walking tour to see other sights including the Inquisition Museum at the Castle of St. George. The Nasrid emir of the Emirate of Granada, Mohammed ben Al-Ahmar, constructed the existing palace and fortifications after neglecting the remains for a while before renovating and rebuilding them in the middle of the 13th century. In 1333, Yusuf I, the Sultan of Granada, transformed it into a royal palace. Granada, southern Spain, is home to the Renaissance-style Palace of Charles V (Admission Included), which is situated inside Alhambra's Nasrid stronghold on the summit of the Assabica hill. Since it had no roof until 1957, the structure has never been a royal residence. The Holy Roman Emperor Charles V ordered the construction because he wanted to build a house next to the Alhambra palaces. Charles V wanted to construct a permanent home befitting an emperor, despite the fact that the Catholic Monarchs had already made considerable changes to Alhambra after the city was taken in 1492. Pedro Machuca, an architect whose background and influences require more clarification, was granted the project. At the time, Plateresque architecture was prevalent in Spain, though it had some Gothic effects. Machuca constructed a palace that matched its aesthetic in Italy, where Mannerism was still in its infancy. Rustication on the ground floor and ashlar on the top level make up the building's exterior in a typical Renaissance style. Even if the reports that claim Machuca worked in Michelangelo's workshop are accurate, most of the architect's architectural creations still needed to be designed when the palace was being built in 1527. The Nasrid kings of the Emirate of Granada in Al-Andalus built the Palacio de Generalife (Admission Included), which is presently located next to the city of Granada in the autonomous region of Andalusia, Spain. A structure called the Alcazaba (Admission Included) served military functions. The first Arab building was probably erected on some Roman fortification remnants during the Caliphate era. When one of the Taifas kingdoms had Granada as its capital in the 11th century, the zires enlarged the enclosure. Even so, most structures date to the Nazarene era (13th to 15th centuries). The circular Cubo Tower at this enclosure is one example of Christian additions. Albaicin, or Admission is Free, is a neighborhood in the Spanish autonomous region of Andalusia that was formerly part of Granada. In 1984, along with the Alhambra, it was designated a World Heritage Site. Return to Seville in the evening.

As you navigate the charming cobblestone streets of Cordoba, take note of the numerous floral balcony boxes, old bodegas, and specialty craft shops. Learn about the rich past of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed city. We'll go to the Cordoba Mezquita Cathedral (Admission Included). The Mezquita, also known as the Cordoba Mosque-Cathedral, is the most significant structure in the city and serves as a reminder of the numerous religious transformations the area has seen over the years. It was once a Catholic church but was altered into an Islamic mosque during the Middle Ages before being transformed into a church during the Reconquista. The Mezquita is regarded as one of the world's most impressive Moorish monuments because of its otherworldly architecture. While exploring the interior, take note of the mixture of grand Roman columns, Baroque and Renaissance murals, and Moorish tiles and arches. The interior's streets extend like capillaries and emerge into hidden courtyards where inhabitants mingle and eat tapas after siesta. Then, proceed to the old Jewish neighborhood (Juderia), where the streets spread like capillaries and end in secret courtyards bustling with locals savoring tapas after siesta. Pay attention as your tour guide describes the distinctively Moorish flare of these medieval lanes, which is reminiscent of the affluence of the Jews under the Cordoba Caliphate. You'll go to the Cordoba Synagogue (Entrance Included), one of the few synagogues still in existence in Spain. It was constructed in the Mudéjar architecture in 1315. Before departing Cordoba, take a stroll through one of the city's most well-known streets, the narrow Calleja de las Flores alleyway. Look behind you to see the Mezquita tower peeking out from the tunnel. One of Cordoba's busiest tourist areas is the Calleja de las Flores.
