THE JEWISH QUARTER (a 20-minute walk from our place) MUST-SEES
1st visit: Paradigma Córdoba Museum or Museum of the Three Cultures
To gain a better understanding, right from day one, of THE MOSQUE, the history of Córdoba and Andalusia https://www.spain.info/fr/curiosites/musee-vivant-al-andalus-tour-calahorra/
2nd visit: The mosque during mass, before the ticket offices open, admission is free and you can enjoy it without the crowds.
OTHERS: The SYNAGOGUE, the JULIO ROMERO DE TORRES MUSEUM, the ARCHAEOLOGICAL MUSEUM…
NOT TO BE MISSED:
• THE ROYAL STABLES (and the show “The Soul of the Andalusian Horse on Stage”)
• A hammam
• The MERYAN workshop and boutique. Traditional Cordoban leatherwork, blending modern and traditional styles. Exhibition of modern and antique “cordobanes” and “guadamecies.” The house, with its patios, is a true gem.
EXPLORE THE ALLEYS
* de Las Flores, Pañuelo, and La Hoguera (before or after the tourist crowds), the Zoco (souk), the Archaeological Museum and its square with the Casa del Judío…
SAN BASILIO, the former perfumers’ quarter with its magnificent inner courtyards
SHOPPING.
Córdoba is a city of jewelers, with numerous workshops scattered throughout the city and excellent shops.
* Plateríacalifal.com Jewelry: beautiful pieces and excellent value for money.
* LEATHER: MERYAN workshop-boutique
* HANDICRAFTS at the souk.
* IBERIAN PRODUCTS: I recommend those from the COVAP cooperative
DINING
In the Jewish Quarter—a prime tourist area and therefore more expensive—I recommend, among others, the following places for good value:
1- Sociedad de Plateros San Francisco
2- CASA RAFAÉ
3- PETRA Tea Room
* PRODUITS IBÉRIQUES : je recommande ceux de la coopérative COVAP
RESTAURATION
Dans le quartier juif, quartier touristique par excellence et donc plus cher, je recommande, entre autres, pour manger avec un bon rapport qualité/prix :
1- Sociedad de Plateros San Francisco
2- CASA RAFAÉ
3- Salon de thé PETRA
