After the Alhambra, we bussed back to the
old town (Alhambra's up on a big hill) and
took in a few more sights; in the Isabella
Catolico Plaza, the famous sculpture of
Columbus making his pitch
|
Over by the cathedral, which we skipped, is the Royal
Chapel, where Ferdinand and Isabella and their immediate
progeny are buried
|
Famous painting depicting Boabdil's surrender to F and Y
|
In the chapel, the altar, dedicated to John the Baptist and
John the Evangelist; the beheading scene is unusually
gruesome...
|
Tombs of Ferdinand and Isabella
|
Actual coffins of F and Y
