The Justice Gate, or Puerta de la Justicia seen from the inside, built 1348 under Sultan Yusuf I, the largest entrance gate to the Alhambra, Granada, Andalusia, Southern Spain, with a horseshoe arch framing the doorway, decorative brickwork and the remains of polychrome decoration. The Alhambra was begun in the 11th century as a castle, and in the 13th and 14th centuries served as the royal palace of the Nasrid sultans. The huge complex contains the Alcazaba, Nasrid palaces, gardens and Generalife. Granada was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1984. Picture by Manuel Cohen
