The Alhambra

The Alhambra of Granada: Ibn al-Ahmar built the fortress as his residence when he took the city in 635, and it became the Nasrids' seat — the elegant palaces raised by Yusuf 'al-Ghani billah' — until the last sultan surrendered it to the Christians on 2 Rabi I 897 after five hundred hostages secured the entry.
