Explore the most important Al-Andalus province with this Cordoba Day Trip. Discover flower-filled courtyards, Muslim arches and the mythical Mosque-Cathedral.
Cordoba Day Trip
We'll meet at 9 am in the Plaza de las Descalzas and make our way to Cordoba, two and a half hours away from Granada.
From the city of the Alhambra to the city of the Mosque. Once we arrive in Cordoba, you'll be able to wander through the narrow streets of its historical centre. As we pass through the arches and tiles that decorate the facades, we'll relive the city's Muslim past.
Small shops, busy squares, Jewish and Roman heritage... During the walk, we'll learn about the stories that marked the city. Did you know that the old city of Cordoba has four places that have been declared UNESCO World Heritage Sites?
The most important visit of the day will be the Mosque-Cathedral, the city's most symbolic building. Accompanied by a guide, you'll be fascinated by the cultural contrasts hidden within its walls as we discover the legacy of the Visigoths, Muslims and Christians. The tour will lead us through the mythical red and white arches of what was once the largest mosque in the world. We'll also be surprised to find the Christian cathedral, "embedded" in the middle of the forest of columns in the Muslim prayer hall.
Afterwards, you'll be able to continue to discover Cordoba's history by visiting the Jewish quarter, considered one of the most beautiful in Spain. Its narrow streets will fascinate us with facades full of pots and will guide us to important buildings such as the Souk, the Synagogue and the House of Sepharad. A journey through time!
Once we have visited the essential places in Cordoba, we'll return to Granada. The tour will end between 4 and 5 pm in the Plaza de Mariana Pineda.
