Beautiful view back to the Roman bridge and the Mosque. Especially at dusk, a good photo opportunity.

Square courtyard with many orange trees. A fountain supplies the water for it, very nicely via small channels. There are 3 gates that serve as access to the Mesquita, official opening every morning at 8:30.

The Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba is one of the most impressive monuments in the world, a symbol of Islamic art in the West and a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1984. It was originally the Visigothic Basilica of San Vicente, shared by Christians and Muslims. In 784, Abd al-Rahman I began construction of the mosque, which was expanded by his successors: Abd al-Rahman II, Abd al-Rahman III, Al-Hakam II, and Almanzor. After the Christian Reconquista in 1236, it was consecrated as the Cathedral of the Assumption of Our Lady, and in 1523 a Renaissance basilica was built inside.

The Plaza de las Tendillas marks the boundary between Córdoba's historic center and its commercial district. It is a large space surrounded by historic buildings, cafes, and shops, whose quintessential symbol is the equestrian statue of Gonzalo Fernández de Córdoba. The sculpture of this nobleman and knight known as "The Great Captain" is made of bronze, except for the head, which is made of marble.

The Almodóvar Gate is one of the most emblematic entrances to Córdoba's ancient walled city, and one of the few still standing. Its history and architecture reflect the city's cultural richness throughout the centuries.

Built in the 1st century BC by the Romans, this bridge has been an important gateway over the Guadalquivir River. Originally, it had 16 arches, although only 14 remain today, and it connects the historic center of Córdoba with the Campo de la Verdad neighborhood. Calahorra Tower: This fortress of Islamic origin was conceived as an entrance and protection for the Roman Bridge. It was declared a Historic-Artistic Site in 1931. The tower has undergone several renovations over the centuries, including the addition of a third tower in the 14th century.
