Andalusia

The home of flamenco and Moorish heritage, famous for the Alhambra, Seville's old town and the sunny coast.

Andalusia lies in southern Spain, facing the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, with the Sierra Morena to the north and the Sierra Nevada to the south. It preserves a rich Moorish heritage: Granada's Alhambra, Córdoba's Mosque-Cathedral and Seville's cathedral and royal palace are all World Heritage sites. The cliff-top town of Ronda, the white villages around Grazalema and Málaga's Costa del Sol are also popular. Spring brings Holy Week and Seville's April Fair, and spring and autumn are the best times to visit, while the interior is scorching in summer. The airports at Málaga and Seville are the main gateways, and high-speed rail links to Madrid.
