Europe's oldest functioning royal palace: founded by the Moors in the 10th century and rebuilt in the 14th century for King Peter of Castile, it stands as the pinnacle of Mudéjar craftsmanship. Intricate plasterwork and azulejo tiles frame the Courtyard of the Maidens and its reflecting pool, while the Hall of Ambassadors boasts a gilded dome. Expansive Renaissance gardens feature orange trees, fountains, and a myrtle maze.
