  • The Palacio is worth a trip if you have the time, but I’d rate it well behind the Alcazar & Mezquita if you’re on a tight schedule. It is possible to visit just the patios, there’s 12 of them...

  • The highlight of this visit is the pretty courtyards with fountains, potted plants and citrus tree. We were too early for the wisteria which would have been spectacular when out. A few historic items....  more

  • Surprisingly nice! Patio after patio, after patio! Initially you'd think it will be 2 or 3 rooms to visit but it seems a never ending walk. Worth every penny once you're in the area! Ps. We've visited during siesta and we were the only people strolling around. Different kind of experience.
  • Diffidently worth the visit, magical pleasant place, well known for its "patios" and the garden that make it be known as Museum of the Patios. Indoor and outdoor are perfectly integrated, giving to the palace an original harmony. Among the collections stand out paintings, tapestries, leather and ceramic tiles among others.
