Perfectly designed to impress!
The Palacio de Comares was the first to be built in the city of the Alhambra, it is also the first to start the visit of the Palatino (Royal residence) Nasrid city.
The Palace is a statement of intent and when you go in each room, you realize that everything was designed to impress, intimidate, to state "without words" that we are facing a superior power.
We are in the old royal residence. Open to the public, it is reached through the large Patio de los Arrayanes (Myrtle Court). When you enter this patio, you get this feeling that an invisible hand is preparing you for something breath-taking, I cannot help thinking of the impression all these theatrics must have left the ambassadors, viziers or plain visitors to the Sultan. Now I let myself go and enjoy its awesome beauty.
