Highlights
Focus on Andalusia in southern Spain. The crown jewels of Andalusia are Granada, Seville and Cordoba.
I took a day trip to Granada while I was in Costa Del Sol. The Alhambra is the most famous Moorish palace for good reason. Our guide was a storyteller and painted such compelling visions of the Alhambra in her full glory that I was swooning from its grandeur.
Seville is universally loved by other Spaniards. I tried fried Ortiguillas which are sea anemones at Eslava, tastes like oysters. I was a regular at the Pura Vida rooftop pool bar with a view of the famous Cathedral.
I took a day trip to Cordoba without doing any research and let my feet guide me. I got off the train and followed a park filled with orange groves. And then meandered through the charming alleys until I stumbled onto the corner of a tremendous structure. I could not stand back far enough to take it all in. A man asked is this the Mezquita as he looked up from a guide book. I nodded with full belief. A town is magic when the energy of the city literally pulls you to the center.
