Can you buy Alhambra tickets at the gate?

You also have the option of buying tickets when you arrive at the monument. There is no guarantee whatsoever that tickets will be available, and tickets bought at the Alhambra will only be valid for that day. Payment is by credit card (from the ticket machines) or by cash (at the ticket desk) only.
