  1. The architecture of Alhambra Palace is inspirational in many ways.

    The main fountain at the Court or Patio of the Lions at the Alhambra Palace was a gift from the Jewish community to the Muslim rulers as an appreciation of their tolerance and respect.

    Additionaly, the winners of the Seventh Cycle of the Aga Khan Award for Architecture were awarded their prizes by the Aga Khan at a ceremony held at the Alhambra Palace in Grenada, Spain in the presence of King Juan Carlos and Queen Sophia of Spain.

  2. I visited Alcazar, Seville Spain and was truly impressed with the Moorish architecture, but Granada is out of this world and truly shows the genius and the brilliance of Muslims’ expression of the limitless Beauty of Divinity into limited humanistic artistic creations. AlHamd-o-Lillah.
