First, the Mezquita of Cordoba (8th-10th century), a representative example of the legacy of the Umayyad Caliphate, is a huge prayer hall with a plan of 136m x 186m and 1,000 columns.

Islamic art, which prohibits idolatry, developed arabesque patterns, but the decorativeness added to the late Cordoban style was developed by the subsequent Almohad dynasty of North Africa, and its elegant crystallization can be seen in the Giralda Tower (12th century) in Seville. This trend reached its peak under the Nasrid dynasty of Granada, which gave birth to the only Islamic palace in the Western world. *Some of the terminology that mentions "Giralda" is listed below.
