Culture and Heritage
The rich culture of Andalusia will take you way back in history, with important archaeological sites, with the legacy of different cultures and civilisations that settled down in this beautiful and rich land in the South of Spain.
Andalusia in recent years has become one of the most complete tourist destinations in the world.
The Alhambra in Granada, the Great Mosque of Cordoba and the Giralda in Seville are World Heritage Sites and an immense artistic legacy passed down across millennia of history. Other towns not to be missed are Úbeda and Baeza in Jaén, both of them World Heritage Sites, and towns such as Arcos de la Frontera in Cadiz; Ronda in Malaga; and Moguer in Huelva.
The stunning Islamic, Renaissance and Baroque architecture in their most important buildings, castles, fortresses and monasteries, scattered throughout the area, complete a heritage of enormous importance.
We invite you to explore these emblematic places, through traditions and magical and symbolic rites, immersing yourself in the network of itineraries offered by Andalusia, whose layout will reveal a unique land.
Furthermore, Andalusia has a wide range of cultural routes, including "El Legado Andalusí”, the Romantic Routes of Cádiz, Bético-Romana and Tempranillo. All these routes cater for a wide range of interests: cultural, sports, botanical, ornithological and environmental education.
