The Nasrid Palaces largely date from the 14th century when king Yusuf I was the ruler of Granada.
The palace is a fantasy of delicate arches, intricate carvings and trickling fountains.

Modest materials were used (plaster, timber and tiles) but they were superbly worked.
The ceiling of the Sala de los Abencerrajes was inspired by Pythagoras' theorum
Beautiful plasterwork on all of the walls
Another amazing ceiling - this one is inlaid wood.
Em's artistic pic shows the detail on these archways
