Featured walk

Córdoba’s Layered Heritage and Courtyards

Walk through Córdoba’s architectural layers, from the Mosque-Cathedral church and Roman Bridge to the castle, watermill and archaeological remains. Notice how Islamic, Roman and Christian histories meet in monuments, gardens and domestic spaces. Palace courtyards, the Patio de los Naranjos and the flower-filled lane add a more intimate view of the city. This walk is worth taking for the way grand buildings and everyday courtyard traditions unfold together.14 stopsSee the walk

How a walk works

The guide starts talking when you arrive.

The pages here tell you where the walks go. The app takes you round them.

  1. Pick a walk

    Every stop is a real place, already in walking order.

  2. Pocket your phone

    Follow the line on the live map, or download the walk before you lose signal.

  3. Listen as you arrive

    On a narrated walk the story starts on its own at each stop, so your eyes stay on the place.

Free to install · Every city’s featured walk is free, start to finish.

  • The route, followed

    A live map with the turns called out, and a way back whenever you wander off it.

  • In four languages

    English, French, Spanish and Arabic — the words and the voice, not just the labels.

  • Or build your own

    Pick the places you actually want and the app works out the order to walk them in.

  • The unglamorous things

    Toilets, pharmacies, cash points and water, without leaving the walk.

  • No signal needed

    Download a walk before you go and it works under a souk roof or on a plane.

  • Picks up where you left off

    Stop for lunch, come back tomorrow, and the walk is exactly where you left it.
