Visiting these patios gives you an insight of very local culture in Cordoba today. Lovingly tended flowers in pots hang originally to hide cracks in the wall as we're told bring these old patios to life, and were ablaze with color still in October when we visited. No less remarkable is the commitment of the house owners to keep this tradition alive and open their courtyards to tourists. Be aware though that the patios close for lunch, but don't miss seeing even just a few of these wonderful places as they give you a very authentic experience of Cordoba.

It is an amazing experience, being able to visit the Juderia, the Roman Bridge, learn about he influence of the Moors and go by the Real Alcazar, and the rest of interesting places, which played an important role in history.
