In almost two and a half hours by car and only one hour and twenty minutes by AVE from Malaga is the smiling and Moorish city of Cordoba, one of the most beautiful cities in Andalusia that during the month of May lives its most intense month celebrating all its festivities that begin the first weekend of the Crosses, followed by the Patios and culminating with the Fair.
The Cordoba Fair is held in the last week of May, in commemoration of Our Lady of Health in the Arenal area, located on the banks of the Guadalquivir River, one of the largest rivers in Spain that crosses all of Andalusia. It is in the fairgrounds where horse carriages, women dressed in their gypsy costumes and flamencos gather. Unlike the April Fair in Seville, the Cordoba Fair is open and the booths that are arranged throughout the streets of the fair are public, so that all visitors have the doors open to enjoy the diversity of the booths that there are for all tastes: tapas booths, flamenco dancing, drinks or disco dancing.
