Puerta de las Granadas (Gate of the Pomegranates)

Attraction/Landmark

A Renaissance triumphal arch built in 1536 by Emperor Charles V at the entrance to the Alhambra woods, the Gate of the Pomegranates is crowned by three pomegranates — the symbol of Granada — and marks the beginning of the three shaded paths that wind uphill through the ancient forest to the Alhambra.
