Generalife, Jardines Bajos - a photo on Flickriver

[ENG] The Generalife is a rural village inhabited by the Nasrid kings of Granada for their rest, surrounded by gardens and orchards. It is located in Granada (Spain), near the Alhambra. Construction began in the 13th century in the Arab-Nasrid style commissioned by Muhammed II, and has undergone reforms and additions promoted by his successors. The garden is organized in terraces to adapt to the land, and they have been cultivated without interruption to this day. The current gardens were designed in the 19th century and retain nothing of the medieval approach. It is declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

[ESP] Los Jardines Bajos, también conocidos como Jardines Nuevos porque lo único que queda de los primitivos son las terrazas escalonadas, se construyeron entre 1931 y 1951 proyectados por Francisco Prieto Moreno utilizando cipreses, arrayanes y boj para los setos, así como rosales trepadores, parras y adelfas para formar doseles y emparrados, y gran variedad de árboles frutales, arbustos y flores que suman unas 160 especies. Los caminos están empedrados al estilo granadino que forman dibujos de motivos florales, naturales o geométricos con guijarros blancos del río Darro y negros del río Genil. Cuatro albercas en forma de cruz recuerdan los jardines musulmanes.

El Generalife es una villa rural que habitaron los reyes nazaríes de Granada para su descanso, rodeada de jardines y huertos. Está situado en Granada (España), cercano a la Alhambra. La construcción se inició en el siglo XIII en estilo árabe-nazarí por encargo de Muhammed II, y ha sufrido reformas y añadidos impulsadas por sus sucesores. La huerta está organizada en bancales para adaptarse al terreno, y se han cultivado sin interrupción hasta nuestros días. Los jardines actuales fueron diseñados en el siglo XIX y no conservan nada del planteamiento medieval. Está declarado Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la Unesco.
