    I ended up going to Cordoba on a Monday and the Alcazar and the Casa Viani were closed. I'll have to go back again next time in Spain. You should try the famous pastry. I found it in a café on the main street that's along the park. I wasn't all that impressed with the flower alley. Walk up and down the Roman bridge and that's it. The Mezquita though is worth the trip: beautiful.

    If you are buying a return ticket first you select the outward journey, then you select the time you want to return. In the video clip it was set as a return journey and then I was showing you the different outward journey train options. Once you select your outward time, at the bottom of the screen a banner will pop up saying "next" - click next and then you can pick your return time. The total cost of a return ticket will be the outward + return journey ticket price. Hope it makes sense now? 🙂

    The cost of the train varies depending on time of day, and also the type of train. The slower, regional trains are cheaper. Prices can vary from around 11 euros to 40 euros one way I think depending on train type and time of day. I would suggest visiting the renfe website and having a look at the different options. As for where to stay, I think Malaga is easier for Granada, and Cordoba is similar from both. I can't speak based on experience though as we haven't visited Granada or Malaga yet! Whatever you decide I hope you have a great trip!

    If you did run out of things to do you could always do a day trip from Cordoba to somewhere else, but I at least think you could comfortably fill 2 days. 1 wasn't enough for us. Like you say, depends what you want to do and also what pace you like to go at. I think it also depends if you are just visiting Cordoba or if it's a multistop itinerary (i.e. do you have enough days for the other places too 🙂). If it were me and I was visiting a few places I would ideally want to spend 2 days in Cordoba if it worked. But visiting Cordoba only then 3 with the option of a day trip if I fancied it! 🙂

    To say that Cordoba is for a day trip from Seville is to have very little knowledge. First of all because Cordoba is a city with a lot more things to do than Seville, even being a smaller city. Cordoba is the city with the most UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the world. With that alone I think it's all said and done. To see each of these world heritage sites you need at least one day. Please, let's be serious before making recommendations. Thank you.

    At no point did I say you can do everything in Cordoba in one day. In fact, I acknowledged that you can't and that we wished we had longer than a day. However we only had time on our holiday for a day trip, and there will be others in that position too. In my opinion not being able to see everything in one day doesn't mean you shouldn't go, or that it's a poor choice for a day trip.
