Alcazaba

The Alcazaba is a wonderful historic site, dating back to 1063.

It really is a beautiful place that can be enjoyed by all ages, and even by people who are not too interested in history like me. Still, I found it to be a very interesting place.

The structure and well-preserved ground gave it a very historical feeling, really allowing you to be taken back in time to imagine how life was like within those walls. Not only are the surroundings lovely but the view from the top is something not to be missed. Entry fees are reasonably priced but a little tip, better to go on Sunday after 2 PM so that admission is free.
