Travel guide Andalusia 10.A 2020

What attracted romantics from the 19th century to Andalusia is still enchanting today: the mountain landscape, the olive groves, the splendor of colors, the Moorish cultural heritage, the flamenco, the parties and the lively atmosphere. The traces of past civilizations - from the pre-Roman peoples to the Arabs - are still ubiquitous today, as evidenced by monuments such as the Mosque of Cordoba or the Alhambra of Granada. In addition, the south of Spain offers spectacular natural monuments and an enormous variety of landscapes. This results in almost inexhaustible vacation planning possibilities for every taste.

This comprehensive guide shows all facets of Andalusia and leads to the region's most exciting places: from the popular subtropical coasts of Costa del Sol and Costa de la Luz to the eternal ice in the Sierra Nevada, from Spain's rainiest region in the Sierra de Grazalema to the semi-deserts of Almería, from the largest Spanish lowland near the Guadalquivir to the highest mountain on the Iberian Peninsula, the Mulhacén. Extensive city chapters and tips for walks, excursions, markets and festivals offer many ideas for exploring southern Spain. In addition, there are detailed explanations about the history, the country and the people.

Each chapter begins with a double-page spread that introduces the content with an overview map of the region, highlights, and page references. Of course, the travel guide contains proven and practical tips on travel problems from A to Z. The extensive foreword contains overview pages with descriptions of all regions, an annual overview of festivals and events, route suggestions and personal top tips from the authors. Lots of special information, for example about how to get there and about the wide range of activities, are useful aids in planning. A small Spanish language guide helps to get in touch with the residents.
