About
Hızlı bilgiler: A maze of terraced gardens sends fragrant clouds of orange blossom and rosemary into the air, while stone staircases and hidden fountains create quiet pockets for afternoon naps. Shaded paths weave through cypress and magnolia, offering elevated viewpoints where visitors can soak in sweeping city and mountain panoramas.
Öne çıkanlar: Step up a narrow, tiled stairway to a secluded mirador where peacocks often strut at sunset, sometimes as many as six at once, their iridescent tails flashing against weathered stone. A carved marble bench engraved with a faint 19th-century inscription sits beneath a lemon tree, a little-known relic that rewards careful eyes with a tangible link to the garden's past.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, paths are uneven and include many steps.
- Bring water and sun protection in summer, shade is limited on the terraces.
- Plan the visit after your Alhambra timed slot to avoid peak foot traffic, or arrive at golden hour for the best light.
- Head to the hilltop mirador for sweeping shots of the Alhambra and Sierra Nevada, and use the lower terraces for close-ups of fountains and plants.
