The Alhambra was ignored until the 11th century. When the Zirid Dynasty settled in
the Alcazaba to preserve an important jewish settlement in the area. In 1238, Mohammed ben
Al-Hamar, the founder of the Nasrid Dynasty, settled in the Alcazaba. He was attracted to the
ruins in the Sabika Hill. He subsequently established a new royal residence of Alhambra and
began creating the palatine city known today.
Alhambra is a really beautiful place, not only the palace itself, but the city Granada is
also very beautiful. Because I’m a muslim, it makes the Alhambra’s history more interesting
to me. The Alhambra is also a shooting location of a Korean television show that I watched.
The Alhambra looked so beautiful in the show, I really want to see it with my own eyes.
