Palacio de Dar al-Horra

This guide to the Palacio de Dar al-Horra in Granada centers on Aixa al-Horra, wife of the Nasrid ruler Muley Hacen and mother of his heir, watching the Alhambra's walls from an upstairs mirador window after her husband fell for a captive Christian woman renamed Zoraya. It follows her move to this hillside house above the Alhambra and her alliance with the powerful Abencerraje family, who turned the neighborhood below into a base of opposition. The carved plaster above that same window still reads blessing, happiness, health everlasting.
