Iberia, Hispania, Al-Andalus—successive names for a crucible of ancient cultures, world powers, and major religions. This program explores World Heritage sites corresponding to Spain’s deep-rooted Roman and Islamic influences. With stunning visuals of the aqueduct at Segovia, the Mesquita Mosque in Cordova, Granada’s Alhambra Palace, and other magnificent locations, the program vividly illustrates the ebb and flow of two empires prior to the Christian reconquista of the peninsula. Informative narration complements a progression of architecture and engineering that clearly illustrates the sophistication of both cultures.
