Medina Azahara, the Great Mosque, the Alcazar, the Jewish Quarter, the Guadalquivir River and the Roman Bridge and Wall are some of the recognized names that evoke the past of art and culture that have unequivocally distinguished Cordoba as its protagonist.

Acting as an intersection of cultures and Roman ruins, Muslims and Christians, Cordoba naturally welcomes visitors offering samples of past civilizations that are enjoyed by foot. A coffee in a tea shop or the taste of the traditional flamenquín are everyday adventures that allow the visitor to venture forth over and over again, meanwhile the wisdom and beauty of the city are absorbed slowly.

Cordoba continues to enjoy the splendor that once made it one of the largest cities in the world. But it is fair to recognize that the brightness of Cordoba is now another one, more paused and thoughtful, settled over the calm tenor of the current urban life. Breathing local life in the Plaza del Potro, or Corredera or at the Capuchinos, constitutes one the bliss that history has preserved for the city of Cordoba.
