Was lucky enough to tour the Alhambra a few years ago. If you think the outside is cool, you should see the inside.
ETA: It’s to a large extent Islamic.

Also, the Moors were in Iberia longer than the United Christian Spain (beginning with Ferdinand II & Isabella) has had control.
In 711, Moors crossed the Straight of Gibraltar. The Kingdom of Grenada surrendered on 2 January 1492. The Moors were in Iberia for 781 years. They have only been kicked out for roughly 528 years.
The Alhambra was/is gorgeous.

The Alhambra is what made me fall in love with Spain back in 2006. Iām still here, 14 years later. š

I visited it at night. It was incredible. The juxtaposition of the Islamic architecture vs the later Spanish/Christian building is stark.
