Its historic centre reflects centuries of Roman, Islamic, Jewish and Christian influence. The famous Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba is the city's greatest landmark, with its forest of arches and remarkable transformation from mosque to cathedral after the Christian conquest. Visitors can explore ancient streets, Roman remains, gardens and historic neighbourhoods. Córdoba also provides an excellent base for exploring Andalucía's countryside, cycling routes and rural campsites.
