For those looking to dive deep into Andalusia’s rich cultural heritage, a mosaic of fascinating destinations stretches out. In sleepy mountain villages, where narrow alleyways wind between whitewashed houses, modernity seems to have no hold on daily life. Here ancient traditions and crafts still determine the rhythm of the day.
The historic cities, in turn, tell a different story. Here, majestic squares, monumental cathedrals and Moorish palaces unfold that testify to the grandeur of past dynasties. These architectural gems, where Islamic, Jewish and Christian influences merge, form a living history book of successive civilizations that have left their mark on the region.
