| 説明 | We had a 3 hour guided tour of The Alhambra in Granada.The site includes the Nasrite palaces and the Generalife pleasure palace. Also here is the Alcazaba, gardens and the Palace of Charles V.It is a World Heritage Site. Alhambra, Generalife and Albayzín, Granada.Nasrid PalacesMohammed ben Al-Hamar (Mohammed I) was the first king to move to the Alcazaba and no records about a new palace being built are kept until those of Abu l-Walid Ismail (fifth king of the dynasty). A palace was built near the Great Mosque (Gran Mezquita) but only the Mexuar is now left because Yusuf I destroyed it completely. He started some improvements in the Comares Tower (Torre de Comares), the Court of the Myrtles (Patio de los Arrayanes) and the Baths (Baños). These improvements were finished by Mohammed V, who added them all to the Mexuar, extended the gallery that would later be called Machuca and constructed the Palace of the Lions (Palacio de los Leones). These two kings were the most important ones as regards the construction, reconstruction, and decoration of the Alhambra. The Court of the LindarajaWhat then would seem to be an open air garden below is in fact enclosed by the three rooms of the Emperor’s Chambers, with arcaded galleries on the ground floor making use of columns removed from other sites in the Alhambra. The affect is cloister-like, which is further enhanced by the design of the garden with its fountain in the middle.The Daraxa garden, remodeled in the 16th century, is the best example of a closed garden, a place of charms and delights. It has the strong and sober style of the courtyard of Toledo, with its Castilian gallery, with bolsters and posts. It is an irregular trapeze resting on two of its sides on the great Palace of Carlos V (Charles V), and the other two sides are closed by a portico. In the center stands a big and beautiful Renaissance marble fountain which is decorated around the sides with a poem. The fountain was placed in the Daraxa garden, in 1626, using the great basin that was formerly in the courtyard of the Golden Room. |
