Reviewed By DSBOBECZKO - University Heights, United States
Trying to avoid the blaring heat of June in Cordoba, we opted for a nighttime tour and light show in the gardens. This was an excellent way to experience the fountains through technological music and lights! The guides take participants through various parts of the garden to fountains that erupt in geysers and steaming ribbons of water set to classical and Spanish pieces of music accompanied by a light show and even a projected movie on a spray of water over the ponds. A truly enjoyable way to experience the gardens and fountains in a way that is impossible during the day! Schedule this experience if you have time!
3. Palacio de Viana
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 2,327 reviews
The Palace of Viana is a lived house until the end of 20th century by noble families but with a great popular flavor instead. One of its main attractiveness are the "patios" and the garden that make it be known as Museum of the Patios. Indoor and outdoor are perfectly integrated, giving to the palace an original harmony. Among the collections stand out paintings, tapestries, leather and ceramic tiles among others.

My husband and I spent many happy hours yesterday relaxing in these gardens. Even at this time of the year (early February) they are a feast for the eyes. The tiered water features are simly beautiful and the gardens, arranged into little rooms, round about them quite magical. It was also quite reasonable to get in E5.00 and worth every single cent. We were blessed with beautiful weather too which, of course, makes all the difference. If you love beautiful gardens, put it on your list.

Visiting these patios gives you an insight of very local culture in Cordoba today. Lovingly tended flowers in pots hang originally to hide cracks in the wall as we're told bring these old patios to life, and were ablaze with color still in October when we visited. No less remarkable is the commitment of the house owners to keep this tradition alive and open their courtyards to tourists. Be aware though that the patios close for lunch, but don't miss seeing even just a few of these wonderful places as they give you a very authentic experience of Cordoba.

If you have time to hire in advanced a free tour of the city center you will not regret it and will learn a lot. It is an amazing experience, being able to visit the Juderia, the Roman Bridge, learn about he influence of the Moors and go by the Real Alcazar, and the rest of interesting places, which played an important role in history. This is definitely a travel in time. I do recommend you hire a guide, for history opens up and everything makes sense when you have a knowledgeable person by your side.
