Aguilar de la Frontera, deep Spain in the middle of Andalusia

In the mid between Cordoba and Malaga, located on a hill, Aguilar has a rich heritage. The castle in ruins reminds the dense medieval past of the town, while its old town centre is sprinkled with very interesting churches, most of them built between the XVI and XVIII. However, the most representative monument of Aguilar is the Plaza de San José, polygonal and beautifully crafted square.

Cordovan Salmorejo with Serrano Ham and Egg


If there’s one dish by excellence that represents Cordoba, it would be the Cordovan Salmorejo. Made of a tomato, bread and olive oil base, salmorejo is a creamy cold soup, similar to gazpacho but thicker, offered as a starter at all bars, taverns and restaurants in Cordoba and most Andalusia.
