If you want to see a Arabic Palace in Zaragoza, make sure to visit the Palacio de la Aljaferia! Its a beautiful UNESCO World Heritage Sight-and medieval palace built during the second half of the 11th century in the Taifa of Zaragoza in Al-Andalus, present day Zaragoza, Aragon, Spain. It was the residence of the Banu Hud dynasty during the era of Abu Jaffar Al-Muqtadir. The palace reflects the splendour attained by the Taifa of Zaragoza at the height of its grandeur. It currently contains the Cortes (regional parliament) of the autonomous community of Aragon. The Arabic and Islamic influences are everywhere, from the arches and geometric patterns to the latticework. The gardens are breathtaking as well. Though empty of any furnishings, you can almost imagine The Sultan himself there in te year 1065 - he called it Qasr al-Surur" (Palace of the Joy) and to see the throne room which he presided over receptions was just amazing! Adults: €5. With a Young Person, Student or Pensioners (over 65) card: €1. Groups (over 20 people) and with Tourist Bus ticket: €4 per person. Children 0-12 years: Free.

It’s more then only a church visit. Also the mausoleum from Teruels most famous lovers is placed here. And the church is also like the cathedral definitely worthy of a visit. For sure when you do the full tour and also go up on the rooftop and get guided over all the grounds. Tours are think it only in Spanish but with the audio book I got around fine. Staff is also very pleasant and friendly!

The £3 to go up by elevator are a must - you need to go into the church and follow an arrow, and don’t worry as the lift isn’t closed (the chap who sells tickets also goes up and down). After the end of the lift ride you still go up a few more flights, but mind that the landing for the lift probably gives you the best photos. Go in the morning as the sun is right.
