| The Alhambra |
UNESCO world heritage sites are “….sites of outstanding cultural or natural importance to the common heritage of humanity.” {wikipedia definition}. The Alhambra is just that, outstanding and more.
The Alhambra is impressive in more ways than one. How a civilization was built without natural water means is more than ingenious. The man made running canals, rivers, aqueducts, and pumps throughout the Granada will make you wonder how they did it.
In order to preserve and keep the Fortress well maintained the number of visitors per day is limited. Because of this, I would highly recommend buying your tickets online.
Advice for those traveling with small kids. Many of the areas do not allow for strollers, which means you constantly have to check your stroller, this can be a pain. If possible, take a backpack carrier.
Have you been to Southern Spain? Would love to hear some of your favorite sites.
