Convent of Santa Isabel la Real, Gothic convent in Albaicín district, Granada, Spain
The monastery features a quadrangular courtyard with seven arches on each side and wooden Mudéjar ceilings in both upper and lower galleries.
Queen Isabella of Castile established the convent after Granada's conquest, constructing it on the former site of the Moorish Dar al-Horra palace.
The church houses remarkable religious artworks, including the Virgin of the Star statue that participates in Granada's Easter processions.
Visitors can purchase traditional pastries made by the resident nuns through a rotating window in the church building.
The nuns perform their evening prayers at 7:00 PM daily, their voices carrying through the church from behind an iron grill.
