Madinat al-Zahra, 2

Continuing our visit to the 10th century Umayyid capital, Madinat al-Zahra...although much has been reconstructed, it helps to have seen other (later) Moorish architecture, in order to imagine what it might have looked like...


Ceremonial entrance, again







Also in English too

Outside, on parade grounds

Remains of what would have been the largest gardens in
al-Andalusia


Entrance to PM's residence; much reconstructed




Household area

Intact oven
