Córdoba 2

At the far side of the bridge stands the Torre de la Calahorra, which contains a museum about life in 10th century Córdoba.

I decided it was time to quench my thirst with a tinto de verano, and so I headed to a nearby bar just beyond the bridge. Not far from the bar, I spotted a sign for the Camino Mozárabe de Santiago, a couple of signs for yet another of the dozen or so Caminos thst criss-cross Spain. The word “Mozárabe” means a Christian who lived and worked amongst the Islamic emirate or caliphate.

I went back to the museum, which presented a fascinating picture of life and times in Cordaba’s heyday. The technology and medical advancements here seemed to be light years ahead of Anglo-Saxon England in the 10th century.

The views from the top of the tower were pretty good too!Okumaya devam et
