La Mezquita in Cordoba


It used to be a heart of Andalusia, the capital of its Muslim Caliphs, who built the place of prayer. The building so extraordinary that even the Catholic conquerors decided not to destroy it but make it their own cathedral. So it was again a place of prayer for a few more centuries. It is changing only now, these days to enter you need to but a ticket and you can ogle as long as you like. As all other famous buildings in the world this one also is becoming a centre of ogling. It nevertheless is breathtaking.
