Street in Cordoba
The Juderia (Jewish Quarter) is a maze of whitewashed alleys, flower-filled patios, and the only surviving medieval synagogue in Andalusia (free). Free to walk. The Calleja de las Flores, a narrow alley of flower pots framing the Mezquita tower, is one of the most photographed spots in Cordoba. Budget travelers walk the Juderia, visit the synagogue for free, and peer into the patios (some open to the public during the May Patio Festival).
