If you're a history enthusiast, architecture lover, consider spending a full day at Alhambra. With 8-10 hours or more, you can thoroughly explore every nook and cranny, and explore the intricate details of the architecture without feeling rushed.
It's highly recommended to book tickets in advance, especially during peak season and for night visits. Booking in advance ensures entry to the Alhambra and helps avoid long queues at the ticket office. Tickets can be purchased online.

Tickets to the Alhambra are usually for a specific entry time for the Nasrid Palaces, which is the most popular section of the complex. Visitors must enter the Nasrid Palaces within the designated time slot indicated on their ticket. However, once inside the Alhambra complex, visitors can explore other areas at their leisure until closing time.
The weather is typically most comfortable during the spring and fall months. In spring (April to June) and fall (September to October), temperatures are mild, and there's less chance of extreme heat or cold, making it ideal for exploring the Alhambra's outdoor areas.
Weekdays, especially Mondays and Wednesdays, generally see fewer visitors compared to weekends. If you prefer a quieter experience and shorter wait times, consider visiting the Alhambra on a weekday.
