More information about Andalusia:
ANDALUSIA has been referred to as the ‘bridge between continents’, ‘gate of Europe’, ‘melting pot of cultures’ or ‘meeting point between seas’. It occupies a strategic position and point of unification between Europe and Africa, where the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Seameet. This land has been desired and cherished over the centuries and our prehistoric ancestors chose it as a perfect location for their settlements.
Contrasts and diversity are the norm in Andalusia. Landscapes and formations vary from the warm valley of the Guadalquivir to the green sierras and foothills and from the volcanic landscapes of the Desert of Tabernas to the white mountaintops of the Sierra Nevada.
Centuries of history have left Andalusia with an immense artistic legacy. The Alhambra in Granada, the Mosque in Cordoba or the Giralda and the Old Town of Seville are monumental milestones of Humanity. We also find precious examples of the artistic Andalusian life represented in the majority of villages and towns across the region.
The brilliant architecture of the Islamic period, the time of the Renaissance and above all the Baroque period, the castles, fortresses andmonasteries spread all over Andalusia form a heritage of enormous importance.
Andalusia was home to Velazquez, Murillo and Picasso. Paintings, sculptures, jewels, images and archaeological remnants are located in Cathedrals, Museums, Churches, Monasteries and Palaces all across the region – preserving the precious artefacts from a period of history which witnessed powerful artistic expression and development.
