Lonely Planet review

Upstairs at the Palacio de Carlos V, the Museo de Bellas Artes is worth a visit for its impressive collection of Granada-related paintings and sculptures. The huge Renaissance palace, Palacio de Carlos V, was begun in 1527 by Pedro Machuca, a Toledo architect, and was never completed. The imposing building is square but contains a surprising circular, two-tiered courtyard with 32 columns. Were the palace in a different setting, its merits might be more readily appreciated.
