Cordoba; La Mezquita
Cordoba is a lovely city- but the main reason we went was to see La Mezquita. It's one of the most amazing buildings I have ever seen, and I've wanted to see it first-hand ever since I knew it existed. Once a Mosque, the partly demolished when the Moors left Spain and the Catholics built a cathedral inside- and the destruction halted by King Philip, who (smart man) realised what a thing of beauty the original building presented.
