Patio del Yeso stands as one of the earliest sections of the Real Alcázar, showcasing stunning Almohad architecture from the 12th century. Its name, “Patio of Gypsum,” references the delicate plasterwork adorning the walls, where geometric motifs and Arabic calligraphy reflect the palace’s Moorish legacy. Framed by slender arches, a tranquil pond rests at the center, creating a serene atmosphere perfect for pauses between tours. Light streaming in highlights the intricate carvings, best appreciated at a leisurely pace. Photography here captures quiet corners often missed in the grander courtyards, making this hidden gem a favorite among history buffs and architecture lovers.
