Medina Azahara, the great city of the tenth century, 10 km away from the Mosque-Cathedral awaits you.
The visit of Medina Azahara shows us the sumptuosity and cultural wealth of the Caliphate, the world capital of knowledge and trade. They did not skimp on building materials to impress ambassadors from other countries. You can visit the ruins that have been excavated till now, the main part of the city palace. The interpretation center and museum of Medina Azahara complement this tour.
This year due to Covid19, the courtyard (Patios ) festival has been moved to October.
In this case, there will not be more than 40 patios to visit and unlike previous editions, it is not a contest, it will simply be a festival, where the participating patios will open their doors so that we can enjoy these "private paradises".
Traveling with children is possible and if the city you are visiting has leisure and gastronomic offer for them, much better.
Córdoba offers both possibilities, but in this case, we are going to focus on gastronomy. There is no 40-year-old "child" from Cordoba who has not been in Mamma Mia, Córdoba's first pizzeria, and although a few years have passed, it has survived other American fashions. Located in the center of the city, a truly recommendable place.
Without leaving the city, but looking for more open places for children to enjoy, we have the Bar Playa located in the Los Patos Gardens and with a swings area right next to it.
If we talk about wine in Córdoba, we have to talk about the D.O (Appellation of origin) Montilla-Moriles, a wine-growing area in the south of the province that produces unique wines.
To begin with, the grape used is Pedro Ximénez, which only grows in this part of Andalusia and which is perfect for the Albariza (White ) lands of the area.
They are generous, strong, and dry wines that are presented according to their fermentation and time in the barrel in.
Due to the situation of Covid19, the monuments of Córdoba have adapted their schedules and capacity.
In the private visits that I organize, I directly take care of the reservation of the Tickets, especially those with the smallest capacity, such as the Alcazar de Los Reyes Cristianos and other museums.
