Alhambra: Hall of the ambassadors

A shot of the Hall of the ambassadors.

"
The Hall of the Embassadors with its colossal ceiling is a masterpiece of carpentry depicting the seven heavens of Muslem paradise. Magnificent views of the city can be seen from the windows. This was the most important hall in the palace, used for royal audiences and court ceremonies. It was here where Boabdil signed the terms for surrender of the city to the Catholic Kings."

"in the 11th century the Castle of the Alhambra was developed as a walled town which became a military stronghold that dominated the whole city. But it was in the 13th century, with the arrival of the first monarch of the Nasrid dynasty, Mohammed I ibn Nasr (Mohammed I, 1238–1273), that the royal residence was established in the Alhambra. This marked the beginning of its heyday. The Alhambra became palace, citadel and fortress, and was the residence of the Nasrid sultans and their senior officials, including servants of the court and elite soldiers (13th-14th centuries)."
