Ulisse - The Pleasure of Discovery

Season 15 Episode 9: Splendors of Andalusia

Alberto Angela guides viewers on a journey to Andalusia to discover a region shaped over the centuries by a succession of civilizations that have overlapped with each other and which, despite their differences, have managed to coexist peacefully. Moving from Seville to Cordoba, from Granada to Ronda, we see for example how Christian churches have become mosques and then churches again, remaining intact in their structures and indeed enriching themselves from an architectural and decorative point of view. Names, words, customs have remained unchanged despite the succession of different and apparently opposing cultures. An era of peaceful coexistence that seems to have no equal in today's world. These are the main places told by Alberto Angela: in Seville the Alcazar, the Cathedral, the Plaza de España and the Casa de Pilatos; in Cordoba the Mezquita; in Granada the Alhambra and the Royal Chapel.
