The Chamber of the Ambassadors is where the emirs would have conducted negotiations with Christian emissaries on the Alhambra. Located in the Torre de Comares, it has a marvellous domed marquetry ceiling containing more than 8000 cedar pieces in a star pattern representing the seven heavens of Islam.

Admission is included in the Alhambra ticket.
