Cordoba Day Trip with Mosque-Cathedral Ticket from Seville

Highlights

Inclusions

Itinerary

1. Enter Cordoba’s most important monument, the Mezquita (aka the Mosque-Cathedral of Cordoba), a symbol of the many religious changes the city has undergone over the centuries. Originally a Catholic church, it was converted into an Islamic mosque in the Middle Ages, then back into a church after the Reconquista. With its otherworldly architecture, the Mezquita is considered one of the most accomplished Moorish monuments in the world. Notice the mix of stately Roman columns, Baroque and Renaissance frescoes and Moorish tiles and arches as you stroll the interior.

   1 hAdmission included

2. Next, head over to the old Jewish quarter (Juderia), whose streets stretch out like capillaries and emerge onto tucked-away courtyards buzzing with locals enjoying post-siesta tapas. Listen as your guide points out the distinctly Moorish flair to these medieval alleys, reminiscent of the Jews' prosperity under the Caliphate of Cordoba. Here you'll visit the Cordoba Synagogue, one of the few synagogues existing today in Spain, built in 1315 in Mudéjar style. Before leaving Cordoba, walk down the tiny Calleja de las Flores alleyway, one of the most popular streets in the city. Look back to see the Mezquita's tower peaking between the corridor — Cordoba’s most iconic sight. Then hop back in the coach for the 1.5-hour drive back to Seville

About Seville

Seville is the passionate capital of Andalusia, a city of Moorish palaces, a vast Gothic cathedral, orange-scented plazas and flamenco.

Seville Cathedral, one of the largest Gothic churches in the world, holds the tomb of Christopher Columbus, and its bell tower, the Giralda, was once the minaret of a great mosque. Next door, the Real Alcázar is a royal palace of Mudéjar courtyards, tilework and gardens, still used by the Spanish royal family.
