The End of Spain


A view from the palace Alhambra

Watching the sunset with our workstay host, Pia, and another worker in Bolonia

Mezquita in Cordoba. This was a palace courtyard  built by the Moors when the Catholics took over they turned it in to a Cathedral. It is an incredible building with hundreds of arches

So the Alhambra was a palace lived in by the Moors way back in the day. Almost all of the decor consists of Arabic writing and spectacular tile work. The palace is most well known for its incredible architecture.
