Customer Reviews
Patios in Córdoba are amazing even off season. Definitely worth your time in Córdoba. Relaxing activity for the whole family.
Cordoba is famous not only for its Mesquita or Alcazar but also and maybe not less for its wonderful and unique Patios. These are among the main attractions in Cordoba, not to be missed (Fomo you know). The only problem is that the people living there often demand a fee for visiting their place and that they are not always nice. 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. Be aware that houses that should be opened during the published opening hours are not always...opened Still, absolutely beautiful to see and must be visited.
Fun, easy to visit various patios that the homeowners have taken meticulous care to make them so beautiful. We did not do an apparent formal tour with tickets. Instead, we opted to just enter 3-4 of the patios on our own. Each patios had a small donation box and we just dropped in some change as everyone else apparently does.
