The Alhambra was so called because of its reddish walls (in Arabic «qa’lat al-Hamra’» means Red Castle). It is located on top of the hill al-Sabika, on the left bank of the river Darro. Besides, it is to the west of the city of Granada, and in front of the neighborhoods of the Albaicin and Alcazaba.

During the ride, you can enjoy the pretty views of the valley below as you ascend to Alhambra Palace.
