Description
Andalusia, a land with the flavour of Arabia, yet one that speaks of Catholic monarchs, majestic churches and places of faith. Lands of art and passion, of history and life, set to a slow rhythm and a warm wind. It is hard to say which is more beautiful: bustling Madrid with the splendour of the Royal Palace and the one-of-a-kind Prado; the Moorish enchantment of Granada and the Alhambra wrapped in the scent of orange trees, myrtle and cypresses; the jewel that is Toledo, home of El Greco, the Moorish mosque of Cordoba, and passionate Seville with its imposing Cathedral and the Giralda, the birthplace of flamenco.
The hidden gem: dazzlingly white Ronda, a place of romantic inspiration.
