In the Palacios Nazaríes on the Alhambra, this is a beautiful porticoed patio with trees and a small formal garden set around a central fountain. In the southwest corner is the bathhouse – you can’t enter, but you can peer in at the rooms lit by star-shaped skylights.

Admission is included in the Alhambra ticket.
