Key Filming Zones (Indicative)
- Courtyard & pool areas doubling as fictional palace settings.
- Select halls used for dialog sequences (angle framing emphasizing arches).
Distinguishing Adaptation
| Show Element | Historical Reality | Visitor Note |
|---|---|---|
| Political intrigue décor | Mudéjar courtly hybrid aesthetics | Avoid oversimplified narrative overlays |
| Fictional region identity | Andalusian syncretic craft labor | Emphasize artisan skill lineage |
| Emblematic props | Authentic hydraulic & tile systems | Focus on real functional design |
Respectful Approach
- Limit cosplay blocking pathways.
- Use filming interest as gateway to deeper architectural study, not substitute.
- Acknowledge production’s selective framing vs full spatial context.

Bottom Line
Let screen narratives invite curiosity, then pivot to authentic craft, water engineering, and cultural layering.
