• The ticket is only valid for the day indicated when it was purchased.
• Due to the great demand of tickets and to the restriction of the number of visitors per day, advance booking is recommended.
• Entry to the areas accessible to visitors is limited to the relevant time of the purchased type of ticket: Daytime visit and Evening or Night- time visit.
• Entry to the Nasrid Palaces is limited to the time slot of half an hour indicated on each ticket. There is no special restriction to entry to the Generalife and to the Alcazaba.
• Due to the number of visitors, arriving earlier to the Monument is recommended.
• Once inside, visitors may stay there until the Monument closes.
• Visitors should leave the Monument at the closing time.

The access to the Nasrid Palaces is different from the rest of the monument, because it is strictly limited to the half- hour indicated on the ticket due the restrictions on maximum capacity in this area (300 people). If you do not visit the Palaces within the half- hour indicated, you will loose the right to visit, although you can visit the rest of the Monument. Do not forget that the visit to the Nasrid Palaces finishes an hour before the closing time, and it takes at least 30 minutes, so you should visit the Generalife and the Alcazaba before.
