El aljibe es una pasada pero el resto de la alcazaba está abandonado. Se nota que Mérida se ha centrado en recuperar su pasado fenicio y se ha olvidado del musulmán. Deberían recrear un jardín con arboleda para hacer más agradable caminar bajo el sol. Y la persona que estaba en taquilla no abría la ventanilla para responder dudas no vaya a ser que se le fuera el aire acondicionado.
