Let’s talk a little about Andalusia before showing photos of my family and friends’ recent trip.
It is an autonomous community in the south of Spain, famous for its architecture and natural beauty, it is made up of 8 provinces: Almería, Cádiz, Cordova, Granada, Huelva, Jaén, Málaga and Seville. In the 8th and 15th centuries it belonged to the Muslim empire, which has left its mark on its architecture, for example the Mosque Cathedral of Córdoba, and the Alhambra in Granada, in culinary art, the Islamic legacy is present in the gazpacho that It is composed of tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, onions, garlic, olive oil, vinegar and bread, it is crushed and mixed until obtaining a smooth and creamy mixture and served cold, couscous originally from North Africa is a wheat semolina cooked in steam, which is served with vegetables and/or meats and the tajine, originally from Morocco, is a stew that is cooked slowly in a clay container with a conical lid called tajine.
Cordova
This province is famous for its mosque, the Alcazar of the Christian kings and the Roman Bridge among other attractions.
Seville
On the way to Malaga, my family and friends walked through small towns between one city and another, photographing the vineyards, lemon groves and tasting the exquisite Andalusian food and its delicious wines.
I hope you have enjoyed this wonderful trip to Andalusia, as much as I have, through these beautiful images of Seville, Granada and Malaga, as well as the towns between city and city. See you in the next post which will be about my family and friends’ trip to Barcelona. 🙂
