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.

Discover Cordoba through its squares and narrow streets.

I recommend a walk that combines Cordoba's squares and traditional taverns. I have seen many tourists who stay around the Mosque, without knowing or wanting to get lost in the streets of the Caliphate city. After the Mosque-Cathedral there is a lot to discover.

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.

 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".

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. 

Gastronomic tourism in Córdoba: Cordoba cuisine is present in every corner of the city.

Cordovan taverns are famous, someone once said: “Córdoba, a brave city, where there are a thousand taverns and a single bookstore“. That is not entirely true, but it is true that there are many taverns, everywhere to enjoy.
