Hidden gem in Córdoba Spain 🥹🌸 ad When our @rabbies_tours bus dropped us off in Córdoba, @sophiessuitcasetravel and I had no idea we were about to discover one of the most picturesque towns in Spain. I have to be honest, I underestimated this gem of a city! The architecture as well as visiting the Patios de Córdoba are an absolute must-see when in Andalucía! 😍🇪🇸 6€ entry for 5 patios means meeting locals, endless picture opportunities and discovering this city by foot whilst you’re searching for the next patio 😍 Once you get your ticket you also get given a map of the patios and off you go! You can only visit each patio once but you can stay as long as you like in each of them 🙌 We loved it, and the best thing is: It’s a completely hidden gem and there are not many tourists around! 🥰🙌 Can’t wait to see where our Rabbie’s Tours bus will take us next! ❤️ #visitspain #spainbucketlist #bucketlisters #bucketlistcheck #bucketlistideas #andalucia #andalucía #cordoba #córdoba #patiosdecordoba #patioscordobeses #cordobaespaña #visitandalucia #spaintravels #spaintravel #spaintrip #igersspain #spain_vacations #hiddengems #hiddengem #andaluciaturismo #igersandalucia #shetravels #femmetravel #sheisnotlost #andalusian #andalusia 🌼

One of the more beautiful areas in Cordoba is the patio gardens. Every Spring the town celebrates the Patio Festival. The Patio Festival in Cordoba Spain is a tradition that began in 1918. However, during the Spanish civil war it had been interrupted and became reintroduced in the 1950s. The festival is intended to make hidden treasures available to the public. Furthermore, it is to honor the residents’ efforts to retain these traditional places. Since 2012, the Cordoba Patios have been part of the world cultural heritage and the area was deemed an UNESCO world heritage site. During the festival, people are welcome to enjoy courtyards of incomparable beauty, packed with trees and flowers, fountains and accessories. While we didn't get to see the patio festival itself, there were still clues and beautiful patios all around town. Some were more extravagant than others and maybe that was premeditated or maybe some flowers on other patios had died off throughout the summers heat. Either way, the Cordoba Patio Festival is just one of the many reasons to come to Spain and Cordoba. Read more about Spain on my travel blog at NavigatorNick(dot)com

Must see during their annual patio festival in the first half of May! Those participating in the competition will deck out their patios in hundreds of potted and hanging plants, fountains and wells, and other decor and open their patios to the public. The competing patios are free to visit and were open between 11am-2pm and 6-10pm in 2023. This particular route (Alcazar Viejo) is very popular, since it is a route of 12 patios in close proximity to each other and the alcazar and mezquita as well as mostly ADA friendly, and thus is extremely crowded! We visited around 11am when they opened and certain patios had lines of 15-30 minutes to get in. As we were staying in Cordoba for several days, we got to walk through some other routes and it was much more enjoyable to visit the patios between 6-8pm since the sun was still out, it was less crowded, and the weather was cooler.

UN LUGAR DE CONVIVIENCIA Un patio es un espacio al descubierto de la vivienda que sirve como iluminación y ventilación del resto de las dependencias. Además, su situación de acceso a ellas permite que se use como lugar de convivencia, es el centro de la vida familiar. La imagen del patio cordobés es herencia de la casa islámica que se caracterizaba por la construcción de fachadas orientadas hacia su interior. El aspecto exterior carecía de relevancia pues se constituía con un simple muro ciego. Tras la conquista cristiana de la ciudad esta estructura arquitectónica se mantuvo y aún perdura en las actuales viviendas. UNA MULTITUD DE FLORES Además de presentar una fachada, un patio se distingue por engalanarse con una multitud de flores plantadas en arriates y macetas, que se cuelgan en las paredes o se colocan sobre el típico pavimento de chino cordobés. Junto a ellas los pozos o las fuentes embellecen el recinto, conformándose una hermosa imagen en la que se fusionan agua, luz y vegetación, un claro reflejo del pasado árabe de la ciudad. Para culminar la ornamentación, los propietarios suelen incluir también muebles antiguos, enseres de cocina de hierro, fustes, capiteles u otros restos arqueológicos. UNA ARQUITECTURA SINGULAR Cada patio presenta una arquitectura singular, fruto de una evolución histórica distinta, de modo que resulta una ardua tarea establecer una tipología. Sin embargo, a grandes rasgos los patios se clasifican en dos grupos básicos: Patios monumentales y señoriales: aquellos relativos a antiguos palacios de la aristocracia local o a señalados edificios religiosos, como el Patio de los Naranjos, el de la sinagoga o el santuario de la Fuensanta. Por su parte, entre los señoriales, sobresale el Palacio de Viana que integra doce patios en su interior de diferente estilo arquitectónico. Patios de concurso: todos los que han participado en el concurso municipal desde su inicio en 1921 hasta la actualidad. Se distinguen a su vez dos tipos de clases que se corresponden con las modalidades del certamen: patios de arquitectura antigua y patios de arquitectura moderna o renovada. Los primeros son aquellos que han sido construidos hasta la década de los sesenta y que conservan sus principales características estructurales. En cambio, los patios de arquitectura moderna son aquellos que pertenecen a una nueva vivienda edificada tras la demolición de una anterior o que han sufrido tal nivel de intervención que han perdido sus elementos más significativos.

You're visiting Cordoba not only for its Mesquita or Alcazar but also and maybe not less for its wonderful Patios. These are among the main attractions in Cordoba, not to be missed. The only problem is that the people living there are not always nice and often demand a fee for visiting their place. A fee is legitimate of course, but then shouldn't they let us know that before we enter and visit, and let us decide whether the visit is worth the price they demand. Awkward and unpleasant situations could be then avoided. Still, absolutely beautiful to see
