The palace terraces and archaeological interpretation give physical shape to the tenth-century court that governed from this site. Open ruins require more imagination than a standing palace, but they reveal the scale of the settlement. Treat it as a separate excursion rather than an extra stop beside the Mosque-Cathedral.
What to look for
The excavated palace terraces.
The interpretation of Córdoba's caliphate.
Useful to know
