THE GATES OF THE ALHAMBRA

The gates of the Alhambra

Itinerary guide form taking a stroll

After the author’s previous work, The Gates of the Alhambra and the Generalife, the present work is published in guidebook format.

Emulating Gallego and Burín’s Itineraries and Echeverría’s Velázquez Walks, in this case, it proposes a journey through the monumental complex to contemplate, discover, and learn about the history of the gates of the Alhambra in person. With a valid ticket for visiting the Gardens and the Alcazaba, visitors can explore the 18 gates, some by walking through them or from nearby and others by admiring their beauty from a distance, as access to the general public is not permitted.

The route indicated is recommended, but it can be started from any point, as each gate is identified on the general map.
