Three Cultures of the Mediterranean

The history of Spain is a compendium of influences from the different cultures that have existed in the country. Relations between Muslims, Jews, and Christian have been shaped not only by theologies and beliefs of the three religions, but also, and often more strongly, by the historical circumstances in which they are found.

Toledo has always been known as a city of tolerance, or as the City of Three Cultures, with the coexistence of Jews, Muslims, and Christians.

The Muslim culture was prevalent for many centuries in Granada, and we can still see the power and beauty of Arabic culture and civilization.
