Then there’s Córdoba, where you can marvel at the Mezquita, a unique mosque-cathedral that showcases the blending of Islamic and Christian architecture. Take a leisurely walk through the Jewish Quarter, visit the Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos, and relax in the beautiful gardens of the city.
And let’s not forget Seville, the capital of Andalusia. Visit the majestic Seville Cathedral and climb the Giralda tower for a panoramic view of the city.
