A gorgeous palace built by the Moors and taken over by Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand when the Christians defeated the final Moor stronghold. We stood in the room where Queen Isabella agreed to finance Columbus' journeys.
The Castle in Denia
This beautiful fortress had spectacular views of the coastline to watch for invaders.
Fortress in ? (I can't remember the name of this town.)
We climbed all the way to the top of the hill to see this castle on a hot hot day. By the time we got there, we saw it was closed, so we sat on the steps and took a nap.

Random Castle
We saw this castle on our drive back toward Seville in the mountains. We decided to stop and check it out. Castles are so common place that there wasn't an entry fee, museum, opening times...we just wandered in. It was so fun to climb the turrets and feel like you were getting a sneak peak into another dimension.
