Whether you have been, if you plan to go, or if you have a specific interest in The Alhambra and the Nasrids of Granada, this course and its well-prepared facilitator give a great deal of information. Broken into three sections, the course details the Nasrids culture and its place in the time periods, the layout and architecture of the Alhambra, and the uses both ancient and modern of the facility. So interesting! I wish I had known half of this when I went years ago. Know I will be returning with this information. Well done… and thank you!
It was v well presented. I had to leave before the end . And look forward to seeing it at again on the recording

I loved this presentation. Tiago gave a great brief over view of history and then covered a very helpful schematic of the Alhambra then took us through the rooms with photos and stories. So well organized and beautiful too. We can’t wait to visit!
