Córdoba, Mosque-Cathedral, Jewry and Patios

We will leave Seville, heading for the city of Carmona, a white village that deserves a short stop to admire its beauty. We will also take the opportunity to have a coffee and use the toilets. Then we continue on our way to Cordoba.

Once in Cordoba, we will go through the beautiful streets up to the Roman bridge of Cordoba to get to the Mosque. We will have a historical explanation by the guide of the bridge and the roman history of the city and the Guadalquivir river.
