The Royal Palace of La Almudaina stands opposite Palma Cathedral, a formidable stone fortress that blends Moorish and Gothic architecture. Originally an Islamic alcázar (fortress), it was converted into a royal palace after the Christian conquest. Today, it is used for state receptions and is open to the public. Visitors can explore the grand halls, royal apartments, and the beautiful gardens with views of the cathedral and sea. The palace houses a collection of tapestries, furniture, and artworks from various periods. Its thick walls and battlements evoke a sense of medieval power, while the elegant courtyards offer a peaceful retreat. A visit here complements the cathedral tour, providing insight into Mallorca's royal heritage.
