Zellige-style windows
The stained glass windows around the harem had the same parttern as the zellige tiles.
Delicate
The tiles were very old and delicate. They asked us not to touch the walls.
More painted ceilings
With beautiful tiles.
Beautiful!
This part of the ceiling looks like paintings, not tile.
Brilliance
Bahia means, "brilliance." It was meant to be the greatest palace of all time.
Ceiling closeup
Very pretty!
Nave ceiling
Another shot of the ceiling.
