The Juderia in Cordoba is one of the most fascinating In Spain, even containing Spain's oldest Synagogue where the great Maimonides himself worshipped. It also contains a wonderful choice of little bars and restaurants!

Quiet, old streets. Charming. Not overly-touristy. Friendly. Very historical. I loved the plazas, especially the Plaza Maimonides. You felt as though you had gone back in time.

Entering the Jewish Quarter behind the Mezquita is like being transported to another age. Winding street form a maze of two of Andalucia's best known features; wrought iron and flowers. No street is the same as the one before and the whole area is fascinating and still quite original. Peep into courtyards and patios whenever possible as these add to... More

Passed thru here many times and never got tired of it. Quaint narrow streets, cute shops and restaurants, lots of flowers. Do not miss it.

This part of Cordoba has narrow winding streets where one can feel transported back to the 14th and 15th centuries. There are many interesting shops, some with patios filled with flowers that add to the interest of the area. An important part of Cordoba.

I did enjoy walking around la Judería. There are great tapas, shops with pottery objects and silver jewellery, and the most important part: enjoy walking through and seeing historical streets and places.

Take your time and go through Juderia, you don't need more than 1/2 hour but your soul will be full of memories from the medieval times, and if you are in the lunch time you must fine a wonderful patio-restaurant to eat something traditional...do it!

Apart from the name Juderia little remains of the ancient quarter's Jewishness except for the preserved street and alley structure. The area is full of quaint shops and art boutiques. There is one incredible structure preserved from pre Inquisition days - the lovely remnants of an ancient synagog, a beautiful courtyard and Mudejar style walls. A place to contemplate times... More

Narrow streets, colourful patios. But about 10 o'clock, hord of tourist fill the narrow streets, so it becomes nearly impossible to walk around

Tiny winding lanes; whitewashed houses; something different around every corner. The Juderia is extremely atmospheric in daytime; but especially at night. You can picture life here as it was lived hundreds of years ago. A romantic, fascinating insight into the past.
