That’s an extremely hard choice, there are just way too many incredibly beautiful and imposing monuments. But in the end I think I’d pick the Statue of Liberty, the Petra and the Taj Mahal, because of what they represent: Freedom, perseverance and love respectively, 3 things I value greatly. But in the end there are hundreds upon hundreds of different sites that that deserve to be in a list like that in their own right. From temples and places of learning to administrative buildings and fortresses, it is incredible and truly awe-inspiring what humanity has been able to build. I’d also be interested in hearing your top 3 though.

Haram al-Sharif because of the religious value or do you actually like the aesthetic of it?

I live in Málaga, near Granada. I have visited the Alhambra plenty of times, and I've also visited some more famous things like the coliseum or new york thirty. The Alhambra is still the most precious peace of architecture that I have ever seen. We aren't a muslim country anymore, but we are proud of our heritage

@J C Ture - not Spanish but seen both and live fairly close to both. The Alhambra is awesome, the Mezquita too - but I would choose the Alhambra. The throne room sections is amazing. And the views outiside both into the complex and out. I don't think its a question of what is best, they are both awesome. You need to get yourself over to Spain (when you can). Its a great country. A visit to both is essential.

I was looking at your last comment "We aren't a muslim country anymore" Sure, you are not anymore, but that does not stop you from reverting to being Muslim. Study and you will find the truth. The Muslims who remained in Spain after the expulsion were forced to change religion. If it wasn't for that, you may have still be a Muslim. Give it a thought.

Visited Andalusia last July and the Alhambra is truly the most spectacular and beautiful place I’ve ever been to.

I’ve travelled to three different continents, and La Alhambra is the most beautiful building I have ever seen.

Some more info, this is Algerian dziri architect, stated by the spanish historians themselves, the familly who built the castle was of Algerian origin, after the chase of the spanish from Andalusia which was also conquered by the Algerian amazigh Tarik Ibn ziad from the Aouras mountains in Algeria, when they were chased from Alhambra, they flee back to Algeria, Algiers was built using this Dziri architecture, it was completely destroyed by the french, but there still some remains, the castle of bni hamad in Algeria was along what survived

It's not AL-Hambra, it's Al-Hamra, which means the red (for a female) . It was named after the ruler of Gharnata (Granada) who's last name is Al-Ahmar (the red, for a male) from the tribe of Bani Al-Ahmar. The castle was built with the moroccan architecture under the moroccan rule of Al-Andalous by Marinids and Hafsids. This is what Ibn al-Khatib mentioned in his book, he mentioned how the Marinids and Hafsids sent subsidies to build the palace.

It was built under the nasrid rule. However the architecture was not purely Andalusian, but inspired by the architecture of Fes. The inspiration mainly came from when the Nasrid king and his Architect sought refuge in Fes due to a military coup in Granada.

Catholic monarch wants to imprint Christian identity but wants to preserve the amazing talent of Muslims in architecture so it can serve them as a cash cow to this day. Worst example of hypocrisy. Same could be said for the Indians the way they have preserved Islamic architecture (Taj Mahal and many more) over there which have absolutely nothing to do with Hinduism and its history.
