The Cordoba Patio Festival

08 May 2017

 

If there’s one perfect time to visit Cordoba, it’s during the Cordoba Patio Festival. La Fiesta de los Patios Cordobeses, or you can say 

Los Patios de Córdoba is the most important festival in Cordoba. It is held each year in the beginning of May.

For 12 days in May, the citizens of Cordoba throw the gates of their private courtyards, English word for patio,  open for everybody. Come and discover the most beautiful secrets that the patios offer.

You can see a lot of flowers and hanging plants, Arabic tiles painted with the hand, splashed fountains and the most beautiful patios in the world. Only during this festival, you can visit these patios for free. If you love the smells of Yasmine, orange flowers and carnation, you will love this festival for sure!

Did you know that these patios are already more than hundred years old? It started with the Romans. The Romans used these patios to catch and to collect rain-water. Impressive, right?

If I’m reading this, I want to go to this amazing and impressive festival in Cordoba! What about you?
