| The name Alhambra has its origins in an Arabic word meaning "red castle or vermilion" - the Muslim chroniclers talk about the construction of the Alhambra "under the light of the torches" . The Alhambra, the former rural residence of the emirs who ruled this part of Spain in the 13th and 14th centuries, was a fortress, a palace and a small medina, all at the same time. Rising above the modern lower town, the Alhambra and the AlbaycÃn an adjacent hill from where this picture is taken, form the medieval part of Granada. |
