A peaceful evening escape from the busy streets of Madrid, uncovering the city's oldest Islamic roots.
Masha’Allah, long before it was a European capital, Madrid was founded by Muslims in 865 CE when Emir Muhammad I of Cordoba established a defensive citadel named Mayrit ("place of abundant water").
Subhanallah, the legacy of al-Andalus still stands strong in the quiet park corners of the city.
