Medina Azahara (or Madinat al-Zahra)
Medina Azahara (or Madinat al-Zahra) is a UNESCO World Heritage site located just outside Cordoba. It’s a place you have to see when visiting Cordoba (and getting there is quite easy).
What is Medina Azahara?
Medina Azahara was the new capital of the Caliphate of Córdoba. Built starting in 940 AD, it would be the center of Muslim rule on the Iberian peninsula. A series of events however led to the city only surviving 75 years.
Today the site mostly lies in ruins and is an active archaeological site, the largest archaeological site in Spain. In 2018 it was named a UNESCO World Heritage site.
