Seville
Detail of Patio de la Monteria (Hunting Courtyard), Real Alcazar, Seville, Spain, pictured on December 26, 2006, in the morning. The Real Alacazar was commissioned by Pedro I of Castile in 1364 to be built in the Mudejar style by Moorish craftsmen. The palace, built on the site of an earlier Moorish palace, is a stunning example of the style and a UNESCO World heritage site. The name, Patio de la Monteria, comes from the scouts, or monteros, who accompanied the king when hunting. Picture by Manuel Cohen
