Colorful Cordoba, Spain

Submitted by Evelyn Lopez-Martinez on the 2016 spring semester program in Granada, Spain…

Just a few hours away from Granada, in the city of  Cordoba, the weather was mostly cloudy and rainy. The weather didn’t prevent me from having a nice day. What caught my attention was how much of a resemblance this bridge was to the one I saw in Rome. Not surprisingly, it is called the Roman Bridge of Cordoba. With the Mosque-Cathedral in the background, the view was nice to see.

Many people say that visitors to Cordoba must go into the patios in May because many of the homeowners have their patios and gardens decorated with colorful plants. Unfortunately, I did not go to Cordoba in May, but I was able to see many pretty flowers around the city and once in awhile when looking into an open household, I was able to see a few decorations. The following is a street that caught my attention while in the city.Cordoba street Evelyn Lopez-Martinez 16S Granada, Spain small
