The Medina Azahara Archaeological Complex was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2018 and it was at this precise moment when Córdoba became the first and only city in the world with 4 Heritage declarations. This Palatine city was ordered to be built by the first Caliph of al-Andalus Abderraman III in the year 936 and completed 15 years later by his son, the second Caliph, Alhaken II. Great people lived there, such as the Jewish doctor Hasday Ibn Shaprut, the doctor Albucasis and the intellectual Lubna. With this tour, guided by an official guide from the Junta de Andalucía, you have a unique opportunity to tour the Medina Azahara Site and learn about the exciting history and legends of the Brilliant City.

Highly recommended visit, especially at night. The guide, Azahara, is a sweetheart and explained the history so well and so naturally that it is greatly appreciated. If anyone has the opportunity to come, do not hesitate.
Muchas gracias!
Spectacular visit, recommended to see it before it has completely gotten dark because that way you can see it by day and by night. If you don't go with a guide you won't understand many things, Elena is 100% recommended, she explains everything to you and places you very well in the era of the ruins, telling anecdotes and events that make it super enjoyable and interesting.
Muchas gracias!
