Astonishing pictures of Palacio de la Aljaferia in Zaragoza.

While being in Zaragoza, I visited The Aljaferia Palace (Palacio de la Aljaferia). A default stop of every tourist of the city.

The Aljafería Palace is a fortified medieval Islamic palace built during the second half of the 11th century.

Nowadays it currently it houses the Cortes or autonomous community legislative assembly of Aragon


I liked this saloon because of the groin vaults in the construction. The sala was a library museum.
