What you need to know before you go
Andalusia is an architectural utopia, with styles ranging from Gothic and Baroque to Spanish Renaissance.

It’s also a hub for nature lovers thanks to its rolling sierras, cliffs and idyllic beaches. But the region’s culture and history have been shaped by civilizations including the Romans, Byzantines and Muslim Moors.
