Start your second day by visiting the Archaeological and Ethnological Museum. Housed in a Renaissance palace, this museum houses an impressive collection that will take you from prehistory to the Middle Ages. It’s a great way to better understand Córdoba’s rich history.
Another highlight of your visit should be the Viana Palace, known as the “museum of courtyards.” This palace has twelve interior courtyards, each with its own character and beauty. Stroll through them to see an astonishing variety of plants and flowers, and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.
The Cristo de los Faroles is one of the most beloved religious images by the people of Cordoba. Located in the Plaza de los Capuchinos, this sculpture and its lanterns offer a charming image, especially at dusk. It is a perfect place to reflect and take a break before continuing to explore.
Visit Plaza de la Corredera, one of the largest and most lively squares in Cordoba. Surrounded by historic buildings and with numerous cafes and restaurants, it is an ideal place to sit, have a drink and observe local life. During the weekends, the square is usually full of people enjoying the vibrant atmosphere.
We cannot forget about food, as Cordoban gastronomy is an essential part of the experience. During your two days in Córdoba, be sure to try some of its local specialties.
Salmorejo: A delicious cold cream made from tomato, bread, olive oil, garlic and vinegar.
Flamenquín: A kind of roll made with Serrano ham and pork loin, battered and fried.
Rabo de toro: A tasty and traditional stew prepared with stewed bull
Flamenco is a vital part of Andalusian culture, and Córdoba is no exception. At night, you can attend one of the many flamenco shows held in the city. Tablaos are places where you can enjoy a live performance while you dine or have a drink.
Walking through Córdoba at night has its own charm. The streets light up and the city takes on a magical atmosphere. Stroll along the banks of the Guadalquivir, cross the Roman Bridge or simply wander around the streets of the old town to enjoy the nightlife.
During the month of May, Córdoba celebrates the Festival of the Patios, where locals open the doors of their patios to display the beauty of their flowers and decorations. However, some courtyards are open all year round, and are definitely worth a visit.
Just a few kilometres from the city are the ruins of the Medina Azahara, a palatial city built in the 10th century by Caliph Abd al-Rahman III. This archaeological site is a fascinating visit that will transport you back to the golden age of the Caliphate of Córdoba.
