Court of the Lions, Alhambra, Granada, Andalusia, Spain

Slender columns with cubic capitals and arches above, carved with floral decoration and Arabic inscriptions, in the Court of the Lions, built 1362 in the second reign of Muhammad V, in the Nasrid dynasty Palace of the Lions, Alhambra Palace, Granada, Andalusia, Southern Spain. The design of the courtyard reflects the Nasrid view of Paradise, with these columns representing palm trees around a desert oasis. The Alhambra was begun in the 11th century as a castle, and in the 13th and 14th centuries served as the royal palace of the Nasrid sultans. The huge complex contains the Alcazaba, Nasrid palaces, gardens and Generalife. Picture by Manuel Cohen
