Beschreibung
Spain is, for many of us, primarily a land of bullfights, flamenco, sherry, and crumbling castles. This is especially true for Andalusia, the most typical region of the Iberian Peninsula. The attention of the eager traveler is drawn primarily to the ancient monuments of Moorish culture, which dominated here for more than seven centuries. The Moors, one of the most sophisticated medieval civilizations, chose the cities of Córdoba, Seville, and Granada as their centers. Therefore, the stunning Córdoba Cathedral, originally a medieval mosque, the Mezquita; the Seville Royal Palace Alcázar; and the medieval palace complex Alhambra in Granada are definitely worth seeing. And that's not all. Andalusia also boasts the Sierra Nevada mountains, the highest mountain range in Western Europe after the Alps; the Mediterranean Sea around Málaga, the birthplace of Pablo Picasso and Antonio Banderas; and the Atlantic Ocean with the golden beaches of the province of Cádiz, which are among the most beautiful in all of Spain. The full-color Rough Guide offers not only an erudite and detailed description of places and historical monuments but also colorful maps and plans of all major cities. With this guide, you definitely won't get lost; on the contrary, you'll thoroughly enjoy your journey. The guide does not include a DVD.
