Cordóba Mosque-Cathedral wall

Cordóba Mosque-Cathedral wall
The iconic mosque-cathedral of Cordóba has quite a history. After the Moors were defeated and Christianity was reinstated the Cordóba mosque was overbuilt and turned into a cathedral. The architectural blend for me was incredibly successful and very moving. Large amounts of the external walls remain as the Moors built and decorated them.
HWW!

Thanks José. I have an image of the restored panel also but though it is beautiful it totally lacks the character in this one.

Charles V is supposed to have said "we destroyed part of something unique to build something we can see everywhere". I agree with him, even if the "thing" inserted makes a unique ensemble...
The colours in your photo are the exact natural ones, great pic.

Thanks Isabel.
I see your and Charles V's point and agree to a certain point. That point being that I fell in love with the building as is and wonder if it would've survived had it remained as a mosque in those times.
Hope your week is going well, take care.

A fascinating shot Maggie...............the detail and colours are amazing and I love the fantastic shapes made by the architecture. That armoured wooden door looks awesome.

I'd love to see this in real life!

The old part of the city could trap you for several days - it did me!

J'aime le cadrage sur ces vielles pierres si savamment incrustées ! ( merci beaux souvenirs pour moi ) je partage votre avis sur la beauté du lieu et le ressenti émouvant qui s'en dégage !
