Španělsko je pro mnohé z nás hlavně zemí býčích zápasů, flamenga, sherry a zchátralých hradů. Pro Andalusii, nejtypičtější oblast Pyrenejského poloostrova, to platí dvojnásob. Pozornost lačného cestovatele přitáhnou především starobylé památky maurské kultury, která zde dominovala po více než sedm století. Maurové, jedna z nejsofistikovanějších středověkých civilizací, si za svá centra zvolili města Córdobu, Sevillu a Granadu. Za vidění tedy rozhodně stojí úžasná córdobská katedrála, původně středověká mešita, Mezquita; sevillský královský palác Alcázar a také granadský středověký komplex paláců Alhambra. A nejen to. Andalusie jsou také hory Sierry Nevady, po Alpách nejvyšší pohoří západní Evropy; Středozemní moře kolem Málagy, rodiště Pabla Picassa a Antonia Banderase, a Atlantský oceán se zlatavými plážemi provincie Cádiz, které patří mezi nejkrásnější z celého Španělska. Celobarevný průvodce nabízí kromě erudovaného a detailního popisu míst a historických památek také barevné mapky a plánky všech větších měst. S tímto průvodcem se rozhodně neztratíte, ba naopak, cestu si náramně užijete. Z prestižní britské řady Rough Guides.
