Overview

May is an extraordinary month in Cordoba, hosting numerous unique festivities, and becomes a great month to discover the City of Three Cultures. One of the most outstanding events during these dates is its traditional contest of patios, picturesque places catalogued as Intangible Heritage of Humanity.

For about two weeks, numerous courtyards of the different neighborhoods of Cordoba are decorated to win the prize for the most beautiful courtyard. A contest that has been held for more than a century and has become a deeply rooted and popular custom. We will go into the old Islamic suburb of the Axerquía, specifically in the neighborhoods of San Pedro, San Lorenzo and San Andrés, to learn even more about this tradition while visiting seven or eight of the most genuine courtyards of Cordoba.

We will learn how the passion for preserving this tradition is transmitted from generation to generation or the techniques used by the owners to care for and maintain the treasure of the patios, while enjoying a huge variety of plants, whitewashed walls and balconies decorated for the occasion.
