The gardens of the Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos in Córdoba are one of the most impressive sights in the city. The gardens impress with their long pools, fountains and elaborate water features that reflect a Moorish heritage. Orange and lemon trees, palm trees, cypresses and a variety of flowers grow here, which are in full bloom depending on the season. In addition to the impressive landscape, there are numerous statues, including a famous sculpture group of Christopher Columbus with the Catholic Monarchs (Isabella I and Ferdinand II), who are said to have received him in this palace.

The gardens are particularly magical in the evening hours, when the lighting bathes the water features and plants in a fairytale atmosphere. A must for every visitor to Córdoba!

The Jardines del Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos in Córdoba are beautiful gardens that are part of the historic Alcázar. These gardens are designed in several terraces and contain beautiful fountains, large ponds and a rich variety of native plants. The gardens are surrounded by the walls of the Alcázar and offer a peaceful and picturesque setting.
One of the highlights of the gardens is the fountain that commemorates the meeting between the kings of Spain, Isabella and Ferdinand, and Christopher Columbus. This meeting was an important event in history, which eventually led to the discovery of America.
The gardens have a rich history and were redesigned in the 20th century.
