Greetings to all,
This is my second day in Cordoba and I have just seen one of the best sites within all of Spain, The Cathedral/Mesquita of Cordoba. It was an amazing Mesquita for its time, known for its colors and huge amount of arches. When Cordoba was taken back by the Spanish, part of the Church was converted into a Cathedral. The building is a great building to see the combination of Muslim and Christain designs within one building. It also had many people within, thought it did not show up much in my photos. I took nearly 400 photos of the interior. Each side of the building had multiple shrines devoted to Christain saints within the city of Cordoba and I will post some photos of the interior soon. Please check out the links below to get a cursory glance of this immacualte building.
