Splendors of Andalusia

Overview

Alberto Angela leads viewers on a journey through Andalusia to discover a region shaped over the centuries by a succession of civilizations that, despite their differences, managed to coexist peacefully. Traveling from Seville to Cordoba, from Granada to Ronda, we see, for example, how Christian churches became mosques and then churches again, remaining structurally intact and even enriched in architectural and decorative terms. Names, words, and customs have remained unchanged despite the succession of diverse and seemingly opposing cultures. An era of peaceful coexistence that seems unparalleled in today's world. These are the key places described by Alberto Angela: in Seville, the Alcazar, the Cathedral, the Plaza de España, and the Casa de Pilatos; in Cordoba, the Mezquita; in Granada, the Alhambra and the Royal Chapel.
