The Mezquita is amazing! A must see. If you get there early (between 8-9:30) you can get in for free, after that is 8 euro. Enjoy the gardens if it's not too hot outside

The Cathedral of Cordoba, Great Mosque. Building Cultural Heritage Site, built in 786. In 1238, the mosque is reconverted Catholic cathedral.

10 euros per person for general admission. Very cool to see the mix of Muslim and Catholic architecture in one cathedral. It only takes about an hour to see the whole thing.

Amazing architecture. Entry to the gardens is free. Mosque entry is €10; but free between 8:30 and 9:30 in the morning. Enter via the side doors (not the big front door).

Beautiful, but also weird to see a cathedral inside a building built by the Mores. But definitely a must-see when you’re in Cordoba..!

The most beautiful building of Iberia, glory of Al-Andalus. Visiting at the end of the day means avoiding queues, delighting in the lemon tree yard and enjoying the sunset through the stained glass.
