CATHEDRAL OF SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA
This architectural treasure in the lovely historic centre of the city of Cordoba is a symbol of the Muslim legacy in Spain. It is a veritable forest of columns and superimposed arches, domes, carved marble, mosaics, drawings… And in the centre, a surprising Christian cathedral. L L www.mezquita-catedraldecordoba.es
Located in Galicia, in the province of A Coruña, it is the final destination for thousands of pilgrims at the end of the Wayof Saint James. It is one of the finest examples of Romanesque art in Spain, although its numerous extensions have left the imprint of other styles, like the Baroque of the Obradoiro, its monu- mental façade.
