al-Andalus Spain where power, wealth, and cultural innovation attracted poets, scholars, artisans, and diplomats from across the world.

With no equal in Europe for centuries, the archaeology of this city reveals its monumental architecture,  sophisticated urban planning, and the splendor of the western Umayyad caliphate.
