Entered "Game of Thrones" 🇪🇸 Cordoba Mosque-Cathedral

🇪🇸Cordoba, standing alongside Granada and Seville, is one of the three shining pearls and world-renowned tourist destinations in the Andalusia region of southern Spain. 🎈Cordoba's reputation has spread far and wide, largely due to the preservation of the Great Mosque, a world cultural heritage site. 📣 The Great Mosque was first built in 786 and, through continuous expansion under Moorish rulers, became the most famous of over 300 mosques in Cordoba. 🚩 After 1236, it took 260 years of construction to transform it into a cathedral. The Moorish style of Arabia and the Gothic and Renaissance styles of Spain blend together, creating the architectural masterpiece of Cordoba. 💎 The Great Mosque of Cordoba, located on the banks of the Guadalquivir River, covers an area of over 23,000 square meters with a building area of over 4,000 square meters. It is magnificent and grand. 💗In the early 16th century renovation project, one-third of the stone pillars and arches in the main hall were demolished, and the height of the arches was raised. A Renaissance-style cathedral was built in the center of the mosque (Figure 3 shows the panoramic view of the Grand Mosque, and the dark green spire is the arch of the cathedral). 👣 Strolling among them, towering domes, intricate ceilings, colorful murals, elegant platforms and chairs, sturdy staffs and swords, delicate sculptures... magnificent and luxurious, as if entering the world of the American drama "Game of Thrones" .

Crdoba Mosque If the Siena Cathedral in Italy is one of the most special churches I have ever seen, then the Grand Mosque of Cordoba that I came today is also the most special mosque I have ever seen. A 1984 The Cordoba Mosque was selected as a World Heritage Site. It is the pilgrimage site after Mecca and Jerusalem. It has been converted back and forth between the Catholic Church and the mosque, so it has a unique culture. After the integration, the 18 rows of pillars are alternately lined by red bricks and dolomites. It is very stunning In such a long history, the great mosque is more magnificent and the decoration is more refined; but the most special It is still the Grand Mosque of Cordoba, a building that combines Islamic mosques and Christian churches. In this building, there are places where Islam believers worship God, and the middle part is where Christian believers pray for God. In addition to the separate time periods of worship, they are co-existing in a building. The mosque that is so mixed is rare in the world and can be said to be the most unique existence in the world.

A place of tranquility in the city!

This really is definitely worth a visit. Entrance cost December 2022 was €5. I'd recommend it in the late afternoon, when it's less crowded and you'll catch the setting sun's rays striking the fortress to give the stone a wonderful soft, warm glow. When you first enter go straight up to the very top of the tower which will give you a sweeping view over the whole layout of the fortress. You may even get to see the horses practicing in the nearby equestrian centre!👍

Calleja de las Flores in Cordoba - The Jewish Quarter

Cordoba, for Chinese tourists, is far less known than Madrid, Barcelona, and Seville. Yet, this old city was once very glorious. In 975 AD, Cordoba was the world's leading advanced and civilized Islamic kingdom, with a beautiful city, prosperous economy, numerous libraries and universities, and many artists and philosophers lived here, and many ancient monuments are still preserved to this day. The Mesquite Mosque of Cordoba is a miracle of architectural history, one of the mosques in the world where Mass can be held. The mosque, built in 785, mixes various architectural styles, with beautiful horseshoe arches, the main door is of the 14th-century Mudejar style, and the entrance to the courtyard is an orange grove. At the center is a Christian cathedral, with delicate arches and a gorgeously decorated dome from over a thousand years ago still preserved today, and many mosaic patterns add a touch of Byzantine church flavor. Mosque entrance fee: 13 euros per person, it is best to buy tickets online in advance, there are time slot restrictions, and there are a lot of people queuing on-site. What I don't understand the most is that the Jews were once the most vibrant and outstanding citizens of Cordoba during the Muslim rule. They lived near the mosque, in a small area with narrow streets, white walls decorated with iron window grilles, covered with hanging baskets and flower pots, currently dominated by 'Christmas red' in winter. It is said that in May when the flowers are in full bloom, this district is decorated with flowers, hence the area is known as 'Calleja de las Flores'. It is suitable for walking and shopping, with many characteristic shops and restaurants, where you can stroll and rest. It is said that a 14th-century synagogue is still preserved, the only one in the Andalusia region. I didn't have the chance to go due to time constraints, but it can be found on Google Map. The attractions in Cordoba are very concentrated, and it is entirely possible to walk around with general physical strength. One day is quite tight, just the Roman bridge and the fortress at the end of the bridge across the Guadalquivir River are enough to keep you there for an evening, as the sun sets, the charm of the ancient Roman bridge fully unfolds.

Calleja de las Flores Hundred Flowers Lane is located next to the mosque and can be found in 2-3 minutes. It is a typical white alley in Cordoba because it is full of flowers and plants in the winding and narrow alleys. The flower is full of fragrance, so the April Garden Festival named Baihua Alley Crdoba is famous all over the world. The courtyard design and flower conservation are very famous , therefore Baihuaxiang should be the most beautiful in April and May. I am not very beautiful in this winter. I don't think it is very beautiful. The color of the flowers is not too much. There is no imaginative flower garden. There is a little disappointment but there are many small shops around. If you buy leather goods, you can find a lot. Good handmade leather bag good at sunset is the best time to see the ancient Roman bridge

Out of the Great Mosque is a particularly beautiful Baihua Lane in Cordoba, but unfortunately there is almost no flower in winter. In fact, not only in the alleys of the old towns of Cordoba, Spain, but also in the spring, the flowers bloom in full bloom. The next step is the ancient Roman bridge of Crdoba. It is a bit bland during the day, and the evening lights will be especially beautiful. The most amazing surprise in Cordoba is the weekend market. In fact, I don't quite understand whether this is a fixed market in Crdoba on weekends or if we are lucky enough to meet the big days in Cordoba.

Nice Old Bridge

The Calahorra tower is a fortified gate standing on the left bank of the river to protect the Roman Bridge. It consisted of an arched gate between two. A third tower was added to the existing one, in the shape of two cylinders connecting them. In May 2004, the bridge was pedestrianised after the construction of Miraflores Bridge. As part of the historic site, it was declared as an UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1984. Walking along the bridge, admiring the breathtaking surroundings, is a relaxing thing.

Although it is not comparable to the gardens of the Royal Palace of Seville and the Summer Palace, it can be regarded as a unique style. Every year at the Garden Festival in May, the citizens of Crdoba will open their own courtyards for everyone to appreciate. The Grand Mosque and the Cathedral of Seville have the same purpose. The Great Mosque was occupied by Muslims in Crdoba and was converted into half of the Catholic Church of the Visigoths at that time. Then the Christians regained their lost ground and rebuilt the mosque.
