Worth getting out of bed for
Cordoba is small and easy to walk around but if you’re feeling especially idle you can rent a bike or even a little zippy electric car to explore the area. www.blobject.es rents all sorts of eco-friendly vehicles.
Diary
January Córdoba’s Christmas parade, the Cavalcade of the Three Kings, passes through the city early in the month. The mediaeval market takes over the main square a few weeks later, filling the streets with stalls, acrobats, jesters and peasants. March/April Semana Santa: Holy Week is an moving, incense-scented affair in Córdoba, with a series of street processions remembering the Passion. May is a big month for the Córdobese (especially in terms of horticulture), kicking off with the Battle of the Flowers parade, followed by the Las Cruces de Mayo celebrating the coming of spring, and the Córdoba Patio Festival, polished off by the late-May Feria, marked with fireworks and music. July The Córdoba Guitar Festival brings an international A-list of strummers to the city.
