Its another cloudy day as we reached our destination. But we were not detered by the weather and appreciated the view with eagerness and excitement of a tourist.
Our primary spot for today is the Cardoba Cathedral, which was once a mosque. The uniqueness of this historical buidling is that the interior still preserve the Islamic design while it functions as a church.
The design and achitecture of the columns and arch in the photos above for example is typical design found in mosques. In fact a similar design is adopted in the holy mosque of Medina.
We were awed by the intricacies of the ceiling and various part of the church. In deed, whatever religion we practice we cannot help but appreciate the beauty of the archicture and design.
Well, enough of the dark and gloomy interior. Lets browse the street!
One thing for sure, I love how the Europeans decorate their shops as well their apartment windows with flowers.
There are a lot more shots in my camera but the above should suffice.
And of course, we spend sometime at the souvenir shops too. Some of the displays really caught my eyes as they were pretty and colourful. But I usually ended up buying the usual souvenirs; fridge magnets and key chains. Not only because they are small and easy to pack but also because they are the crowd favourite too!
Lets go shopping shall we? Jom!
