Mesquita de Almonaster la Real





This simple, elegant, 10th century mosque tucked away in rural AndalucĂ­a (Spain) felt like the Muslim equivalent of the 4th century Christian churches I love so much.

I think remember studying that in my art history class. I don't remember much about it anymore though.

You probably did, it's frequently mentioned along with the Mesquita de Cordoba. They are both from the same period.
