Cypress Courtyard of the Sultan

Once one has had their senses completely overwhelmed by the Nasrid Palaces, from walking through the gardens and the Camino de Ronda to the Generalife, there is a place that gives us the finishing touch.

The Cypress courtyard of the Generalife preserves a secret of forbidden love, you daydream about it whilst you listen with the audio guide and read about it on the signs detailing the exact place. It does not matter whether the story is true, if there are tragedies behind it, etc. You let yourself drift to those times of Moorish princesses and brave Muslim knights... The Alhambra and the Generalife actually transform you...
