Bullfights, street musicians and Flamenco dances are daily celebrations. Sevilla combines the wealth of history and culture with its modern business facilities and shopping centers.

Cordoba

Córdoba is an extremely beautiful city full of culture and relics of the moorish empire. It was once the capital of the Al-Andalus region conquered by the muslims. Several mosques from that era still exist including the 8th-century mosque with painted columns and arches that is so magnificent that it was preserved by the christian rulers that later took over. Cordoba's old quarter is a maze of narrow streets with white buildings, balconies and patios full of beautiful flowers and several historic buildings.

Granada
