Monday Morning Photo - Palacio de la Merced, Cordoba

Once one of the most important buildings in Córdoba, Palacio de la Merced was founded in XIII century as a  Mercedarian monastery. When the order was dissolved it became an orphanage then in the 1970s a Provincial Government seat. The Baroque portal is in the middle of the enormous frontage, the cloisters and monastery church remain and services are still held there today.

Monday Morning Photo - Despeñaperros Natural Park

El Parque Natural de Despeñaperros is one of Andalucia's smallest Natural Parks. Erosion caused by the River Despeñaperros  created this natural pass from the region of Andalucia into that of Castilla-La Mancha. 

Rugged and stunning with steep canyons, reams of wildlife from mountain goats to wild boar and various species of Eagles and vultures, plant life, cave paintings and the stunning La Cimbarra waterfall make it a great area to visit.
