The Alhambra

2005 | 216 Pages | ISBN: 1861974876 | PDF | 4 MB
This book was a good introduction to Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain. It had the map of the palace and explanation of each room and small enough to carry around. Since you won't get anything at Alhambra itself (unless you get the tour guide or audio guide), you will need some kind of reference to help you move around. The place is HUGE! The book itself was bit boring and my eyes glazed over most of the book, but it is an informative starting point if you are thinking of visiting Alhambra. How much of this palace is original? Who cares? The place is AMAZING! I highly recommend a visit to this place if you are in Southern Spain. (If you are thinking of visiting, you need to book in advance. The tickets get sold out very, VERY, fast -- especially the daytime visits.)
