We were at the mosque around noon, and there was a huge crowd all crammed around the entrances. I would have preferred better crowd control at the entrance, perhaps with separate lines for tour groups and individual visitors. The interior is immense and beautiful, but not well-lit enough to take good souvenir photos.

An extraordinary place, combining the delicacy and humility of Moorish devotion to God with the ostentatious and flashy aspects of Christianity—all in one place! I felt the same way I did when I visited the Grand Mosque of Casablanca, which is sometimes open to non-Muslims!

At the entrance, we found two security checkpoints with body scanners and bag scanners, though the process was very quick. As soon as you step inside, you’re immediately struck by the vast depth of the mosque: in some areas, such as the entrance, the lighting is dimmer, and the forest of columns, together with the two-tone arches, seem to stretch on endlessly. At the center of the building stands the Christian cathedral, set within the Islamic structure: the contrast is truly striking and lends the whole a deeply spiritual atmosphere, almost suspended in time. I recommend strolling slowly, observing every detail and taking the time to savor the historical and artistic layers of the place. A slow and careful visit reveals all the magic of this unique site.

I chose Headout based on a recommendation from ChatGPT; this is my second time using it. They offer convenient packages that combine the most important sights in each city. Check-in was quick, and I didn’t have any issues. The only thing that worried me was waiting for the tickets to be confirmed, but that usually happens within 1

We visited Seville, Granada, and Córdoba. The Mezquita was definitely the highlight, even though I’d already seen it once before. But the entire historical and cultural context was truly remarkable as well. A must-see for anyone who loves history and culture. Henk Liefting
