Medina Azahara
Overview
We offer you an incredible 2 1/2-hour guided tour that will show you the best of the splendid citadel of Abd-al-Rahman III, which was meant to be the capital of the new state and a symbol of power before the adversaries and allies of Al-Andalus.
We begin the visit in the parking lot of Medina Azahara and it takes place mainly in the archaeological site, ruins of the ancient city, in which our guide will interpret each of the rooms and locations of the tour. We will also explain the political, historical and social context that lived in Al Andalus according to the stay we are in.
The archaeological and artistic value that is hidden behind the walls of the citadel make it a reference tourist place on the whole planet, so we recommend hiring our guided tours in Medina Azahara so you can uniquely know the secrets of this great monumental complex.
