Description
Alhambra Hall of the Two Sisters. Granada, Spain.
Vertical panorama of the hall of the Two Sisters and its unique cupola, as seen from its only entrance.
Built around 1350 AD, the Hall of the Two Sisters in the Alhambra is one of the most spectacular palace halls in the whole world, taken directly from the Arabian Nights. Should you turn around, you would see the famous fountain of the court of the lions not ten yards away.
A place of breathtaking beauty, preserved by the wisdom of a Sultan who was later labelled a coward for surrendering the fortress before it was utterly destroyed in a fight he could not possibly win. I for one am grateful.
