Serrano Hotel Córdoba

I need to post my photos from the Alcazar. And I now need to post photos from the Mezquita in Cordoba. Both were awesome. Beyond words. They require pictures. But, I am too lazy to post them right now. However, I have a 3.5 hour ride to Granada tomorrow. So hopefully I will get a bit more organized during that trip and post when I arrive at the oasis... no, the hostel is actually called Oasis. :)<br><br>Hasta luego mis amigos!<br>

... amazing. I would love to describe everything I saw but am having a hard time finding the right words...it is just one of those things you need to see for yourself to fully apprecaite. Despite how beautiful these buildings are it saddens me that so many of these buildings were altered from their original state. It would have been absolutely ...

Ah... One of the cities in Spain by far is Cordoba. If you are into photography, night shots of the old city of Cordoba is a must to do. The city is surrounded by a fortress. We got a room in a hotel just outside of the old city. 15 minutes walk will take you to the ...

... we went to a torture museum? I'm not sure why. I was just going with the flow. It was weird. After that we ate at this little restaurant and had appetizers. The best one was the bulls tail stew. It was straight off the back bone and it was to die for. It was even better than the pigs tongue I ate last week which was also REALLY good. After Cordoba we drove another 30 minutes to another site with ancient ruins called Madinat Al-Zahra. This time I ...

... the hotel looked like it had character. Definitely not the Ritz, but decent enough for one night. Plus the location could not be beat and the price was not bad either. The only two disadvantages to it that I later found out about were that the air-conditioning did not work as well as I would have liked it to and we had to carry our luggage upstairs. It was 99 degrees Fahrenheit the two days we were in Córdoba. The ...

... decided we were going to try something else. We went back for dinner- pasta w/ tomato sauce, cheese, and tuna. Good minus the tuna. Then all of us tried another salsa place, from the Chicago bar. At first we couldn't find it because we were on the wrong side of the block, but when we found it, it was so so good. We had an instructor all to ourselves who was a much better teacher and who was really helpful and not intimidating. We learned ...

... and the mosque was built on the same site. It was expanded a number of times by different Muslim rulers. Once the Christians returned in the 1200s, time started running out for the mosque. But it still had a good 300 years before the Christians decided to start building a cathedral. So today, the building is effectively a cathedral that sits inside a mosque, but which has been completely consecrated for ...

... but that feeling quickly left and the my group made a fantastic presentation. The critics really seemed to relate to our project & provided the group with very valuable constructive criticism that we will take into consideration when we pick the project back up when we arrive in Belgium. I will do my best in the next few days or so to upload the presentation to the Web, so that all of you can see the outcome of our Design Workshop. So after ...

Cordoba is possibly our favorite inland city, as there is so much to see and do. Again its a historic city with winding streets, small parks and plazas shaded by orange trees, courtyards full of plants, a Moorish castle or alcazar, and a huge mezquita (mosque)which some bright spark decided to build a cathedral in the middle of ! But away from the tourist hot spots we found a nice relaxed atmosphere and friendly locals. We would highly recommend a visit sometime.
