Exclusive architecture tour in the Alhambra from Malaga

Come from Malaga to discover something that will surprise you: the Alhambra is not a palace or a group of palaces. It is an independent walled city which was begun to be built in the 13th Century. It has always been inhabited and even today, there is still a neighbourhood inside its walls with private houses.

The current Alhambra families correspond to the tourism movement that started in the 19th Century. Artists and writers like Washington Irving began to disseminate the beauty and the exoticism of this place and it meant the arrival of travellers to Granada.
And I belong to one of these families. I grew up in the Alhambra.

During the 1850's and 1860's, some entrepreneurs bought some houses in the Alhambra in order to have their businesses and also their homes inside the citadel. This is the case of my great-great-grandfather, Abelardo Linares, who was a photographer. Since then, three generations were born and grew up inside the Alhambra.

So, choose to discover the Alhambra with a local!!

The city of Córdoba is a curious point in the history of mankind since we can find ourselves in a place that has been relevant in the territory over thousands of years, from republican Roman times to the present. However, if a building stands out among the jewels that this city shows (and sometimes hides) to the visitor, it is the Mosque of Córdoba.

This mosque stablished in the year 758 by Emir Abderraman I, the only survivor of the Ummayad family, is one of the oldest examples of Islamic sacred space we have in the world, as well as being a constructive paradigm, being an example of beauty and functionality that influenced iberian and european architecture for hundreds of years.

During this route we will visit this iconic building and its surroundings, analyzing urban evolution, genesis, and the constructive reason of the city in order to fully understand the relevance of Córdoba all through its historical layers
