Alhambra, Granada

Its intricate arabesques, carved by hand over two centuries (1238–1492), remain 87% complete in their original form—a rarity for medieval palaces. This hydraulic system, combined with 124 columns in the Court of the Lions, evidences a mastery of light and flow unrivaled in Spain's Islamic heritage.
