The morning sun creeps over the walls of the Mezquita while the first aromas of freshly baked churros waft through the narrow streets. Whether you want to get lost in the flower-pot-adorned patios or are looking for the lesser-known sights, I’m happy to tell you what you absolutely must do and see in Córdoba.
Córdoba is more than just the Mezquita and charming alleyways. Food lovers have plenty to discover, from surprisingly good coffee bars to a three-star Michelin restaurant, traditional churros, and modern tapas. In this food guide, I’ll take you to the tastiest spots in the city.
If you’re only going to see one thing in Córdoba, the Mezquita MUST be it. This medieval mosque with a Christian cathedral inside is absolutely incredible! The red and white horseshoe-shaped arches are simply mesmerizing. And here’s the good news: you can visit the Mezquita mosque-cathedral for free. Let me tell you all about it.

I have the impression that there are more restaurants and bars in Cádiz than there are houses. Lots of tapas bars, and lots of international cuisines. So it’s basically impossible to eat everywhere and give you a complete overview. But I’ve tried quite a few places for you, and the ones below have made it onto my list of favorite restaurants and bars in Cádiz!
What I love about Andalusia is that everyone knows it, and at the same time, there are still many unknown places. The coastal town of Barbate is one of those. Barbate’s highlight? Wow, that’s hard to choose. For me, it’s either the tuna temple or the cliffs of Barbate.
A cute white town on the coast, that’s Conil de la Frontera. Chilling on the beach, walking around town, and eating local specialties. The town is certainly not big, making it perfect for a day trip. Find out what to expect from and do in Conil de la Frontera.
It is actually incomprehensible that Cádiz in Spain is still so unknown. And well, maybe it should stay that way because then you have the best port city of Andalusia all to yourself. Enjoy the (often free) sights, the good restaurants, and especially the atmosphere: Spanish with Moorish influences and a touch of Cuban.
