Administrative Centre
This part of the complex took about half an hour to visit.
Each group has to complete the tour and move on to other areas so as to leave room for the next group, because there are so many visitors wanting to see the beauties of these buildings.
This is one of the open-air courtyards in the palace. Excuse the ladder - on-going maintenance!!Notice the similarities with the entrance to the Taj Mahal.
Inside the buildings is the most intricate decorative carved work, as this shot shows. We both commented that we would have loved to have seen the artists at work all those years ago.
And outside again, another formal garden area for the officials and members of the court and family to walk in the cool of the trees while they plotted and planned.
And here is my favourite, the old historic part of the city, the Albaycin, seen through the windows of the palace from the offices of that complex.
