Step Back in Time: Alhambra Palace Reveals Hidden Royal Chambers After 500 Years
A timeless icon of Spain’s Moorish heritage, the Alhambra Palace in Granada has long captivated travelers with its ornate architecture, sprawling gardens, and rich Islamic art. Now, this world-renowned site is offering something even more extraordinary: a rare chance to step inside the Palacio del Partal Alto, a secluded part of the palace that had remained closed to the public for over five centuries.
A Royal Secret, Finally Unveiled
The newly opened Partal Alto Palace was once reserved for the royal elite of the Nasrid dynasty, who ruled the Emirate of Granada during the final centuries of Muslim rule in Spain. Tucked away on a hill above the Alhambra’s main palaces, this space served as a private residence for nobility, designed with intimate courtyards, delicate stucco work, and panoramic views of the surrounding city and Sierra Nevada mountains.
Thanks to a meticulous restoration effort, visitors can now walk through these regal chambers and experience what was once a hidden world of refinement, beauty, and Islamic artistry. The reopening is part of a broader initiative to expand public access and deepen appreciation for one of Europe’s most exquisite historical monuments.
