Today we visit Córdoba, where you can join our optional guided walking tour to see the celebrated courtyards and patios, the Jewish Quarter, the Muslim Quarter, the Christian Quarter and the famous Plaza del Potro.
Córdoba was once the largest city in Europe and its incredible history is represented by the beautifully preserved buildings and squares. It is home to the famous Mezquita, a 12th-century mosque, which dominates the town centre and is a symbol of worldly and sophisticated Islamic culture (entrance not included). It is impossible to overemphasise the beauty of Córdoba’s great mosque, with its remarkably peaceful and spacious interior. The Mezquita hints at a lavish and refined age when Muslims, Jews and Christians lived side by side and enriched their city and surroundings with diverse and vibrant cultures. The medieval centre is a warren of narrow streets surrounding the Mezquita. It is home to some excellent bars and restaurants, some of which have become sights themselves. The main shopping streets are found to the north and west of Plaza de las Tendillas, which is the city’s main square.
Please note: the Córdoba Guided Walking Tour is highly recommended and must be booked in advance. The cost is from £38 and includes a fully guided walking tour. Please ask for details when booking this holiday.
