Andalusia by Bianca Filippone
The passing of the greatest Mediterranean civilizations and the hallmarks left by great men - poets, painters and navigators - profoundly marked the southernmost region of Iberia where the tip of Europe and the tip of Africa, known as the Pillars of Hercules, almost touch.A generous land by nature, Andalusia reveals her unique treasures in a trip that follows the traces of the Moors who entered via Gibraltar and those of the Christians who re-conquered al-Andaluz: the white beaches on the blue of the Atlantic, the anachronistic caves in Guadix, the cathedrals-cum-mosques, the red fortress in Granada, the wilderness of the Coto Donana and the futuristic Seville Expo. The history of Andalusia is relived in the region's thousands of age-old traditions and celebrations that embody the "Andalusianness" so much talked of but offering so much to be discovered.| SKU | Unavailable |
