Spain, Andalusia, Cordoba: Here in the Orange Garden within the walls of the Mezquita I found cool and calm. Beyond the air temperature was 48 degrees, yet here the sheer quantity of orange trees and the shade the cast, together with streams and pools, gave a different climate altogether. To say nothing of the delicious fragrance. Beyond, inside the mezquita the sound of devotional hymns beckoned further salvation from this climatic anomoly.
