21st January 2013: Mezquita-Cathedral

This is the Mezquita-Cathedral (mezquita is mosque in Spanish) of Cordoba. This place seriously suffers from an identity crisis. This is because it was first a cathedral, then turned into a mosque and then back again to a cathedral. So it has both the architecture and wall inscriptions of a mosque and a cathedral combined.
