After witnessing the grandeur of the Mosque of Cordoba, our next stop will be the old streets. Along our route are Cordoba’s flower-filled streets, old inns reflecting the full elegance of Andalusian architecture, and Cordoba houses. As we pass through beautiful courtyards, the sound of water trickling in the pools will fill our ears, while our eyes will feast on flowers in a thousand colors.

Immediately beside the cathedral, we will see the Giralda Minaret, the last surviving part of the mosque upon which the cathedral was built, bearing the memory of the Umayyad state of Andalusia. Then, during our walking tour with our guide, we will pass between the Alcázar (from the outside), the palace of the Castilian kings shaped by the shared Andalusian and Christian architectural heritage, and the Archive of the Indies, where records of all maritime expeditions to the Americas from the Age of Discovery until the 19th century were kept, before reaching the old narrow streets of the Santa Cruz district, known as “old” Seville.
