The Mezquita, the famous mosque-turned-cathedral. The docents make sure you know it is first of all a cathedral that has mass each day. It was fascinating to see the juxtaposition of the two different styles of Moorish and Gothic. This was one of the places on my list to see…it did not disappoint! (Our tour guide was really good too—Trafalgar hired great guides throughout the tour.)
The tower with guess what enclosed? Yep. A minaret. There is a lovely orange grove within the walled courtyard.
Look at the two styles fused together.
The ancient Roman bridge that has been restored. We crossed this bridge on foot to reach the Mezquita.
