The Alhambra is a famous palace and fortress complex in Granada, Spain, known for its stunning Islamic architecture and well-preserved palaces. Built in the 13th century by the Nasrid emirs, it served as a royal city with mosques, baths, and artisan workshops. Visitors today can explore its beautiful courtyards, intricate tile mosaics, and ornate decorations that reflect Moorish design traditions. The Alhambra's red walls, iron oxide from local clay, give it its name, which means "the red one" in Arabic. It's a must-see attraction for history buffs and architecture enthusiasts alike.
