For six Euros you can step inside what could have been the grandest, most exquisite cathedral ever built in the history of the world. Or, to make things less grand, such a cathedral can transport you to the 10th century when Islam is a ruling religion and the Moors (Muslim conquerors of the Byzantine era) have made Cordoba the most splendid
European city.
Welcome to Mezquita, a cathedral within a mosque in the heart of
Cordoba, Spain. The Torre de Alminar is the bell tower annexed to it, and Patio de Los Naranjos is its courtyard. People all over the world have marveled at this
popular tourist spot, now preserved to uncover a history so rich that it is difficult to take it for granted.
