Palacio de Generalife

Palace Granada, Andalucia, Spain

What to expect

The Generalife is a leisure place for the kings of Granada, located on the slopes of the Hill of the Sun, offering breathtaking views of the city and the valleys of the rivers Genil and Darro. It was built in the 13th century and features two groups of buildings connected by the Patio of the Irrigation Ditch. The Generalife has a peaceful atmosphere, with simple and solid buildings, and decorative motifs of plasterwork. It is a great place to visit with family and friends, with its beautiful gardens, orchards, and recreational areas.
