Nice Complex with Garden

Alcazaba is built between 1057 and 1063, it is located just below Castillo de Gibralfaro, and is around 2.3 kilometers 30 minutes walk from the train station. Alcazaba offers a spectacular view toward the harbour area, but you can get a better view at Vista Lookout or Castillo de Gibralfaro. A small uphill climb can get you to the main open courtyard with gardens and fountains in the middle. The courtyard then spills into another elevated area that leads you through another gate into the upper part, with a beautiful arched window. A Roman Amphitheater was discovered in the 50s following the construction of cultural centre building. You get a free entrance when you come on Sunday after 1400hrs.
