It's true that the Alhambra still has its charm by night and day. However, the night visit offers a different perspective which gives a more romantic character, an unforgettable, fascinating and mysterious experience to discover all the mysticism of the Moorish architecture of the 13th and 14th century. It is not rather a highly visual and colorful visit like today's. On the other hand, it is a journey through the five senses, particularly through nocturnal aromas and the music of the water which sings charmingly over the respectful silence of visitors. Another element that becomes magical are the incredible reflections on the large pools of calm water, on the white marble pieces. Still the tranquility of the night produces a natural state of spiritual reflection in the souls of the spectators. The night landscapes of the city which can be seen between the points of the lights are the vital charm of the visit.
