Musab Almadi
Well organized and surprisingly large and much more to see than expected. The gardens outside were peaceful and a good photo spot. Definitely book tickets in advance.
Ward Platt
The palace is gorgeous, just not very engaging if you’re not into historic interiors. Some rooms are roped off, so you only see them from the doorway. Good for history fans, maybe less for kids.
Mohammed Al Dubays
The palace is huge and very elegant, but some sections felt a bit rushed because of the visitor flow. Still a great way to learn about Spanish history. Go early if you can.
Grigoriy Falkovich
The exterior is impressive, but the real beauty is in the rooms and lots of detail, artwork, and royal decor. The armory section was a nice bonus. Worth getting the audio guide.
