GUIDED TOUR OF THE ALCÁZAR AND JUDERÍA OF CÓRDOBA
The Judería of Córdoba preserves a highly recognisable part of the historic layout of the old town, with narrow streets, squares and spaces such as the Zoco de Artesanos or the Plaza de Tiberíades, linked to the figure of Maimonides. The Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos, meanwhile, forms part of the area where several buildings of power were concentrated for centuries beside the river, and the visit includes entry to explore its halls and gardens with an official guide.
