22 lovely things to do in Córdoba, Spain | PACKTHESUITCASES packthesuitcases.com

Here are some lovely things to do in Córdoba, Spain, that I personally recommend, featuring restaurants, gardens and more.
A lot of people only visit Córdoba for the day, coming from other cities in Andalusia, which is a shame because it’s worth staying over and spending some proper time there. I spent over a week in Córdoba and liked having the time to get to know its whitewashed streets, striking architecture and gardens of olive and orange trees.

There’s plenty to do in Córdoba over a long weekend, from strolling its medieval streets, discovering hidden alleyways lined with colourful flowerpots, to entering the breathtaking mosque-cathedral. Even if you do only stay overnight, it’s worth it to see the Roman bridge as dusk falls, when the city starts to sparkle. Córdoba is especially magical in spring. Its gorgeous floral ‘patios’ (courtyard gardens) are at their finest and locals compete in the city’s famous annual flower festival.
