Granada's Generalife, estimated to date back to the latter years of the thirteenth century, is enjoyed today by over 2.5 millions visitors each year. Translated as the "Architect's Garden", the Generalife was a place where kings could enjoy a retreat surrounded by beauty and tranquility. With gardens filled with plants, flowers and fruit trees plus fountains and more, don't miss the two courtyards, "Court of the Irrigation Ditch" and "Court of the Sultana".

So peaceful to stroll through the gardens of the Generalife within Granada's Alhambra. It's a great area to reflect on the life that may have been lived by the kings hundreds of years ago when they wanted to "escape" for a while!
