The gardens, which is many ways are as good if not better that the Generalife in Granada, are well worth a visit. The building itself, apart possibly from the old chapel which now houses some magnificent mosaics, is a trifle disappointing.

It was lovely to be able to wander around the gardens of the Alcazar of the Royal Christians and I did it for hours. It is very beautiful and well maintained. If you want a little peace and quiet or simply to relax for a little while, I'd recommend you vista.

It is not as grand as either the Alcazar in Granada or Sevilla, but this one has great gardens. Nice views from the towers of the city, gardens, royal stables. It's more like a park. A little on the expensive side, but a nice change from the city.

The building is pretty average and only of passing architectural interest. Good views of the city and the riverside from the walls. Gardens are extensive and well-maintained. Entrance was cheap and included a son et lumiere show later that evening.

Stunning water gardens and fountains. Lots of rose and flower beds .Great views of the town from the old walls.

Its a moments full of beauty passing the gardens and feeling the history when visiting the Alcazar. It need to be introduced in depth in term of history.

Ques here are much shorter than at the mezquita and entrace fees are cheap. Within this royal palace you get to see some rooms, some views and so forth. But what really shines are the gardes beyond the walls with fish ponds, waterfalls and stunning flowers.

Take a moment and enter in the history deep. This is the place that give you a full sentence from that time when christians reconquer the lands from the moors and build the medieval imperial Spain.

The palace is kind of underwhelming but the gardens make up for it. A very different experience to an English garden but recommend finding a place to sit quietly and drink it in.
