Description

Part of the gardens of the Alhambra Palace in Granada, southern Spain. Completed in the 14th century it is one of the most brilliant examples of Moorish architecture and still stands resplendent today, attracting thousands and thousands of tourists each year. The architecture is stunning, as are the gardens which are immaculately kept. I'd been once before when I was 6 and didn't remember a huge amount but returned to Spain a couple of years ago to live for a short while with a Spanish family so I could attend a nearby school and improve my Spanish, and we were given a guided tour one afternoon by one of our tutors. If you're interested here'a link to a little more info on this amazing place: Artistic Introduction to the Alhambra's history Another photo from my archives and old camera, if I don't get a chance to get out and take some shots any point soon I'll probably post a couple more of the place.. And on an aside note.... I hate exams! (and they hate me too I'll have you know) ;) Enjoy your day, Adam
