- Welcome to a new vlog from Cordoba, Spain and in this video I will show you how to travel Cordoba in a day! Cordoba, Spain is a beautiful city in Spain’s southern Andalucian region filled with tons of beautiful architecture and a really unique history. To start off my day in Cordoba, I head to a local bakery for breakfast to try a Pastel Cordobes, which is a local pastry here in Cordoba, Spain.
After a delicious breakfast, I went to the main attraction in Cordoba and a place you must visit on your one day in Cordoba, the Mesquita Catedral. The Mezquita Catedral, otherwise known as the Mosque Cathedral, is both a mosque and a cathedral, and potentially the most unique religious monument I have ever visited. Inside the Mesquita Cordoba (Mezquita Catedral) is a beautiful cathedral that is still in use today, and right next to the Cathedral are the remains of the old mosque, with beautiful red and white arches. The Mesquita Cordoba (Mezquita Cordoba) is truly a special place. I would recommend getting your tickets online in advance before visiting the Mesquita Cordoba, otherwise, you can also visit between 8:30 and 9:30am for free! Any day in Cordoba must include a trip to the Mezquita Catedral!
After visiting the famous Mosque Cathedral in Cordoba, Spain, I walked through the Street of Flowers, which is a beautiful, narrow alleyway with tons of flowers and colors. Next in my Cordoba Spain Vlog, I went to the Palace of Christian Kings, or the Alcazar de los Reyes Cristianos, which is an old fortress in Cordoba with tranquil and beautiful gardens to explore. The Palace of Christian Kings is another must visit on your one day in Cordoba, Spain.
Next in my Cordoba Vlog, I walked around the Jewish Quarter, otherwise known as La Juderia, which is another area of the city that you must visit when you travel Cordoba in a day. The Jewish Quarter in Cordoba is filled with beautiful, white narrow alleyways, and there is even an old synagogue to visit as well.
Walking through the countless parks, gardens, and patios is another must do activity during your 24 hours in Cordoba Spain. So, next on my Cordoba Spain tour, I walked through the Gardens of Victoria and the Agricultural Gardens, which is a nice pedestrian walkway lined with tons of tall palm trees. After walking through the Agricultural Gardens, I walked to Plaza de las Tendillas, which is one of the main plazas in Cordoba, Spain. Plaza de la Corredera is another beautiful plaza in Cordoba, filled with a few cafes and tons of beautiful red arches. Next, I visited Palacio de Viana, which was one of my favorite areas in Cordoba, Spain and a must visit on your one day in Cordoba. Palacio de Viana is home to 12 different courtyards, each with their own unique and beautiful charm.
For dinner in my Cordoba Spain Vlog, I went to a restaurant to eat some Rabo de Toro, which is bull/ox tail, and is a famous dish here in Cordoba. If you only have one day in Cordoba, it’s a must try meal! To end my day in Cordoba and my Cordoba Spain walking tour, I head to the Roman Bridge (Puente Romano) for sunset.
I hope you enjoyed my Cordoba Spain Travel Vlog and are looking forward to your one day in Cordoba!

Welcome to Cordoba, Spain! Cordoba is such a nice city to explore and visiting the Mosque Cathedral is an absolute must! Let me know what you think of Cordoba down below👇🇪🇸
I fell in love with gorgeous Spanish courtyards and churros last time i was in Cordoba!
Lived in this beautiful city for months. Didn't feel it at the time, but ever since I left the place, haven't been one day that I don't miss this place.
It's such a beautiful city, I'm glad you got to call it home for a little while!
WOW that sunset!!
It was a really good one! Thanks stone!
The design of mosque and Ambience are both nice!!
I couldn’t agree more!
It's a cathedral
El rey Fernando era tan buena persona e inteligente , San Fernando, que no destruyó la hermosa Mezquita al tomar Córdoba en 1235, sino que la transformó en Catedral.
Pero......hace 2000 años era templo Romano, luego templo cristiano, después .....Mezquita y......al final Catedral.
Por favor pon subtítulos , inglés o español. Muchos no dominamos el ingles .😁🙅🇪🇸
¡muchas gracias por compartir esto Ana! Trabajaré para poner subtítulos en videos futuros, pero es posible que necesito algo de tiempo
the cathedral was super cool!
i’m also really enjoying the well courtyard! wish that was my backyard
That would be an epic backyard!
I can’t wait to visit Córdoba someday!!
Glad it’s on your travel list!!
La Mezquita is absolutely stunning and incredibly underrated. When I visited, I was surprised that there weren't as many people visiting as other attractions in Spain.
I completely agree Marc, it's such an incredible place!
The food is also very unique, because it's Andalusi, along with Andalusian Spanish. Dishes that are exclusively one or the other. To say that eclectic, that'd be hard to differentiate, unless start with the high cuisine experience methods found elsewhere in Spain and Europe. That's why I preferred Andalusi when I was there, that includes the use of dried fruits and nuts in the sauces, especially for lamb. Delicious. My grandmother used to make a fabulous stewed chicken dish, even if supposed to use hen, typical of Aragon with the Arabic influence. It had saffron, crushed almonds, parsley, and chopped eggs, in the sauce . Called "en pepitoria". Not even my mother could make it the same way. Have to light fry the pieces of chicken, just lightly floured, before added into after making the sauce. Some olive oil from frying the chicken has to be in the sauce. If want totally gluten free, almond flour. Also can add pine nuts. Served with white rice. Last time I had Lebanese food, in London, had something similar, but with lamb. Much heavier dish. That was definitely our nearby go to carry out place during lockdowns. Besides Lebanese food, including fresh fish, also made delicious pizzas, and could make them however wanted on the spot. When allowed to open the outdoor restaurants, had hookah pipe during the time of the meals at night. Such a nice atmosphere. They got to know me as a client very quickly, and excellent relationship with me. I seriously liked the area where my daughter lives, and did serious circumference walking around wanting to get to know it all. No matter what I eat or drink, shed ten pounds on my trips to Europe. Exciting. That's why. Not boring unchangeable hollow out wickedness here in the USA for thirteen years ago in March. Boring selfish purposes wickedness is being nice as adjectives. Literally Zombieland. Whenever I have to deal with any about anything concerning money, it's ALWAYS ONLY ALL about the ZOMBIES, and how see it own way. That's why it's hard to get anything done, because no matter what shit do, blame shift on me. It's always something wrong with me, never ownselves. That's why I am alone, because God out to eliminate ZOMBIES, in whatever ways darkness wickedness in the world, creates the opportunity for God to do so, while all remain cowardly wickedness about governments wickedness. Dark blind sheep. Now take that being the case, and imagine how all would react to a foreign invasion. Why keeping general populations mentally emotionally and physically down, except conveniently for political activisms, is an Oligarchy Globalists psychopaths agenda worse idea ever. Big time folly of fools, traveling on corrupted destructive bought off political views governments, ALL in own vehicles of non stop greed and piracy.
ohhh cordoba, it's amazing. I went in 2017 and was fascinated
Yes! I really liked Cordoba as well!
Another great video Matt. Excellent shots and narration.
Thanks Andrew, I really appreciate it!

I have been to Cordoba in mid October 2019. I have to say, wished we ate there. When you travel with family, we sort of stuck with the outline of one individual. I will do this alone next time.
Hopefully you get to go back again soon!
Wellcome to my city!!!
Thanks for you video!!💗
Thank you Carmen, you live in a beautiful city!
@@MattKramerTravels I know...It's wonderfull!!!😉 Tanks!!
Hi Matt, thanks for sharing your Cordoba experience. What month were you in Cordoba? Thanks
Thank you! I was there in October!
2022: Train & Bus from Sevilla on Soccer Day. The local restaurants@ Mesquite Cathedral, now catholic-Mass-church. It’s possible as city on cliffs. Bring your Thermos for H20 & sometimes Vino!
Wow! That’s not too far from me. I’ve passed through on way from Madrid to Sevilla. After this school year I’m returning next year to work in the CIEP public school, I’ve got lots of exploring to do!
Sounds like a lot of fun times ahead!
Andalousia = Heaven
It's delicious.
Cheers Amelia!
Hi there! Were you happy with the order in which you visited the sites, or is there a different order that you would recommend? I’ll be visiting for the day, so trying to see as much as I can!
I will be visiting Madrid in April 2023. Is it workable to spend a day in Cordoba taking the high speed train? Will it be too rush? Thanks!
Definitely looking into your suggestions! Any tips on how to purchase advance tickets for Alcazar de los Reyes Cristianos?
Hey Sarah, I believe you can purchase them online. Otherwise, you might be able to purchase tickets when you arrive, a day or two before you want to visit the Alcazar.
Another great city! It's look like you know spanish very well, am I right?👍
Thanks Lexi! I'm continually practicing and learning Spanish, it's nowhere near perfect, but I'm working on it!
Me encantó tu video, well done, explain, give an advice of a hotel that is near all these monuments, i just retired and planning to visit España 🇪🇸
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it! I didn't particularly love the place I stayed in so I don't have a great recommendation. Enjoy your visit!
You mentioned getting tickets in advance for the Mesquita and the Palace of the Kings. Can you do that from another city in Spain before you arrive, or the day before in Cordoba, or on-line. How does one reserve in advance? I'll probably be setting two days aside for Cordoba. There's so much to see.
Yes, you can easily get these reservations online from anywhere. We did so from home in the US for the Mesquita. We did not get them for the Alcazar and bought tickets the same day but had to wait in line an hour and a half for entry for hours later in the day. We had 2.5 days there.
Update. I bought my tickets when I arrived with no problem. I didn't have to wait too long. The other thing though is that the Alcazar and the Palazzo Viana are closed on a Monday. So. Cordoba can be done in one day if you go any other day other than Monday. Granada on the other hand needs two days. There's a lot to see in the Alhambra. You need time to visit the neighbourhoods in Granada.
What kind of camera or phone are you using to shoot the video? The quality is very good
Thanks so much. My primary vlog camera is the go pro hero 8!
Hey again Matt 👋 We went to Spain this summer and we loved it! Especially the food 🤤 We didn’t try the Cordoba pie though! The street of flowers were so beautiful - the best part of Spain for us was the architecture and the little streets like in the Jewish sector. Watching you eat dinner made us so hungry! Did dinner take ages because of the service? We found that every meal was super slow because the Spaniards love to take their time 😂
Hey guys! I absolutely love traveling Spain, and Cordoba was no exception! I also realized that sometimes things move at a more relaxed pace in Spain too
@@MattKramerTravels Hahahah I think one of favourite Spanish expressions is mañana mañana which basically means I’ll do it tomorrow, but it gets said everyday 😂
@@EmilyandTom What a great exression!
@@EmilyandTom "MAÑANA" HAS TWO MEANINGS IN SPANISH:
- MORNING
- TOMORROW
AND TO SAY TOMORROW MORNING: "MAÑANA EN LA MAÑANA" 😁
@@gustavocabanas61 Hola!
to say tomorrow morning is mañana por la mañana
What a beautiful church. Jesus is King.
Matt, my wife and I watched several of your videos. She is from southern Spain so she really enjoyed them. I did as well, they are very well done. One suggestion, if you are in an area where mask are optional or not required, you might want to consider taking yours off from around your chin. I'm seeing all these beautiful places with people in the background, enjoying the area as you are, and the vast majority are not wearing anything. I just found it distracting. Thanks😃
Thanks so much Tom, I'm glad you and your wife enjoy the videos! Thanks for the recommendation, I'll keep note of this distraction in the future! Cheers!
It would be better if you talked about the original history and hw by whom that buildings wr done
1 of 3 synagogues in Spain here.
effects of confusion when you go from one city to another but you have used a clip (0:16 - 0:19) where images of Granada are shown [Gran via avenue and junction Elevira street and Plaza Nueva ] //efectos de la confusión cuando vas de una ciudad a otra pero has usado un clip ( 0:16 - 0:19) en donde se muestran imágenes de Granada //
How much for a ticket on entry for the mosque cathedral
I'm not sure how much it normally costs but like I did, if you go in the morning, it's free!
@@MattKramerTravels I payed about 11 euros . I got the train from seville so couldn't do the free early visit.
@@tarny11 I hope you enjoyed it nonetheless!
I AM FROM GUATEMALA...AND LOVE SPAIN. BEEN TO CORDOBA AND THE PALACE OF THE CHRISTIAN KINGS KIND OF LOOKS LIKE GRANADA.
Guatemala and Spain are two of my favorite countries! Thanks Gustavo!
How for a ticket for the Palace of Christian Kings can u get ticket on entry
I think most people purchase a ticket online in order to save waiting time!
@@MattKramerTravels I went today to visit but could not pay by cash witch i thought was stupid. Someone i met payed for me so I gave them cash.
@@tarny11 I'm glad it worked out and I hope you enjoyed it!
@@MattKramerTravels Thanks.
What country are u in now
There was no church there, Mosque of Cordoba was just a museum
It's a cathedral
Spain "became under control of the muslim"...🤦they conquer us and we reconquer back!!👍 so simple. Good video
Who built Andalousia ?
Moroccans of course
Jajajaja!! Come on man!
MESQUITA/ CATHEDRAL------will be bitter/sweet experience for a person with ISLAMIC back-ground. Sweet ,because this is suggestive of great MUSLIM PAST----but the same is BIITTER experience that how MUSLIMS lost it all. Why did they lose this all ????????????????
Take a drink every time he says "here in Cordoba"... like dude we know what city you're in, you don't have to keep saying it
Don't be a dick, dude.
