The city grew by night under the glow of the torches of fire. People wondered, and called it » Al- Hamra», the red castle
This palace and city was conceived as belonging to the garden of Eden, a secret paradise, isolated from the reality outside, a mirrow of heaven, but, mainly, an idea…..
A slice of Paradise, where, even the walls, whisper poetry…….
» I am the Garden adorned by beauty, I will know whether you see my beauty. Oh Mohammed, my king, I try to equal the noblest thing that has ever existed or will ever exist. Sublime work of art , fate wants me to outshine every other moment in history »
Ibn Zamrack. 14th century
«..Contemplate my beauty and you will find my being….», says one of the tacas in Al-hambra palace
All things have a facade and a mystery behind it. Those who discover the Al-hambra´s essence are spellbound by it.
