Its population size places it behind Malaga in second with 571,000, and Seville in third with 688,700. While C\u00f3rdoba is a populous city for Andalusia, it\u2019s relatively small compared to other big cities in Spain. For example, Barcelona has a population of 1.6 million and Madrid has a population of 3.2 million. So, C\u00f3rdoba is a rather small city in comparison! Situated on the river Guadalquivir, C\u00f3rdoba boasts the highest summer temperatures in Europe, and is a beautifully picturesque city, displaying ancient architecture like churches, castles, and bridges.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2 id=\"generated-id-1\">C\u00f3rdoba is home to one of the 12 Treasures of Spain<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:image {\"sizeSlug\":\"large\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/9b\/51\/fd\/9b51fd9e5396c9a0e9e9e99bfced3d8b.jpg\" alt=\"Mezquita-Catedral\" \/><\/figure>\n<!-- \/wp:image -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Image credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/image-photo\/great-mosque-mezquitafamous-interior-cordoba-spain-76490824\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Shutterstock<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>In a similar way to the New Seven Wonders of the World, Spain has its own elite list of incredible attractions.

It was once one of the biggest mosques in the world (constructed in A.D 785) before becoming a Catholic Cathedral in 1236. Its history is even older than that, however, as some believe that a Visigoth church once stood on the site before the mosque was built.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Jackie, from the travel blog, <a href=\"https:\/\/joujoutravels.com\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Jou <\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/joujoutravels.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Jou<\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/joujoutravels.com\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"> Travels<\/span><\/a>, shared with us her reflections on visiting this important location: \u201cThe Mezquita-Cathedral is a stunning mosque, which the whole city is centred around.

Aside from the Mezquita-Catedral, C\u00f3rdoba is probably most famous for its beautiful flower-filled patios. Due to the hot climate, many homes in C\u00f3rdoba were built with a central patio and this is a tradition that goes all the way back to the Romans, continued on through the Moors, and carries on to this very day. C\u00f3rdoba homes have loved decorating these patios with beautiful flowers and, as a result, have created a lovely, picturesque scene for visitors to enjoy.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>These patios offer a visual feast of floral delights along with classic C\u00f3rdoba scents such as jasmine and orange blossom. Once a year in May, the Festival de los Patios takes place when C\u00f3rdoba bursts into spring \u2013 it even includes a patio contest. It\u2019s not just homes that sport these lovely patios, as various buildings like convents and the Viana Palace boast their own spectacular displays.
