The Guided Tour of the Courtyards of Córdoba encapsulates the character of the people of Córdoba, as they are quiet places, reserved for intimacy, yet welcoming to anyone who visits them. These are spaces for aromas, the sound of water, and for flowers, which in the month of May become a symphony of colors.

Description of the experience

We will begin the Tour of the Courtyards of Córdoba by analyzing their historical origins, and then delve into those old houses of popular neighbors and visit their courtyards.

We could say that there are a series of characteristics that are repeated in numerous courtyards scattered throughout the old town of the city. Among them is the "enchinado cordobés," which is formed by stone pebbles traditionally placed one by one. When they get wet, they retain moisture and provide coolness to the courtyard on hot days.

Another example is the colorful flowerpots with vibrant flowers, the presence of water in wells and fountains, which were not only used for consumption but also to create an idyllic atmosphere (both visually and acoustically). Some courtyards feature ancient washbasins, indicating that everyday tasks were carried out in the courtyard, including kitchen utensils, antique furniture, and more. With this tour, the guides will immerse you in every detail of these places cared for by their guardians daily. They will bring you closer to the knowledge and experience of a unique way of life that is preserved through the efforts of families from generation to generation, guarding all the essence of Córdoba.
