Wonderful translation... allow me to offer a few comments.

Something truly beautiful in Spain

Something truly beautiful in Spain
In Southern Europe, where many centuries ago the current territory of Spain was ruled by the Islamic culture (except some regions in the North). is raised Here one of the most wonderful, beautiful and magical buildings of the on Earth was built  (I broke it up this way because you had two complete thoughts combined). I'm talking about The Alhambra, the red castle. On the hill of al-Sabika, surrounded by the city of Granada and the Sierra Nevada Mountains, this construction maintains its enchantment and evokes ancient times. It survived to the Spanish Re-conquest of the Islamic territories by the Catholic monarchy, the Independence War (War of Independence?) between Spain and France, and the Spanish Civil War. But It also survived the actions of tourists, during the Nineteenth century, when many people came to Granada. appealed by the magic evocations of Washington Irving’s writings. (There are a number of ways the last sentence could be re-written.  You would not often apply the verb to appeal as an action verb.  That would be closer to a legal issue i.e. appealing a decision and if successful saying that it was appealed.  To get the intended meaning try one of the following: The magical evocations of Washington Irving's writings appealed to many. They were lured by the magical evocations of Washington Irving's writings. ) His description of places and stories that took place there are may be far off from the true history and reality., but it doesn’t matter at all. He contributed to the rescue from of history from such an extraordinary building and the Islamic legacy in the Iberian Peninsula.
For those who are interested in this monument designated by the UNESCO as a World Heritage Site I attached the link of its website: http://www.alhambra-patronato.es/. In addition, I'll give you two more links about two videos in Spanish which describe the construction and its history. Both videos were produced and broadcasted (broadcast is a better choice here) by the Spanish National Television company RTVE:

I hope you enjoy watching them!

It does seem very interesting... It will give me something to figure out by practicing my listening skills.
