Cordoba once stood as one of the most magnificent cities of the medieval era, even rivaling Constantinople with its remarkable palaces and mosques—the most splendid among them, the Mezquita, remains one of Europe's marvels. Today, the city is smaller than its Andalusian counterparts like Granada and Seville, which lends it a unique charm and appeal.
Its primary attractions are conveniently reachable on foot; as you stroll through the squares of the old town and the narrow lanes of the ancient Jewish quarter, you'll find Cordoba famed for its vast array of tapas bars, where locals and tourists alike mingle. The summers can be blisteringly hot, but the climate in autumn and spring showcases Cordoba at its finest.
The centerpiece of Cordoba is the Mezquita (Mosque), where, following the Christian reconquest of Andalusia, an unusually open-plan Renaissance cathedral was integrated into the heart of the Mosque. Additionally, the Roman Bridge spanning the River Guadalquivir provides a splendid opportunity to cross and admire an impressive view of the medieval town of Cordoba.
