Christian

Cordova, Spain view map

Unfortunately, the only way to preserve one of the most wonderful Mosques in the World was to implant a Christian Cathedral inside...
But this was so badly done, that even when Emperor Charles V visited the completed cathedral he was displeased by the result and famously commented, "They have taken something unique in all the world and destroyed it to build something you can find in any city"...
