Palacio de Viana

Refreshing step in the dozens of patios of the Palacio de Viana. Entry is 8.50€ p.p and definitely worth it if you have some free time. The best season to visit this place is surely Spring, where many walls are covered with blooming wisteria! 💜

Very cute palace with something like 12 gardens! We didn't do the whole tour of the palace but paid only for the gardens. Nonetheless you get a glimpse of what's inside in msny occasions. Worth a visit!

Lovely palace with beautiful gardens. The palace itself is worth touring just to see the excellent collections of tapestries, books, guns, furniture and so much more. The only disappointment was the lack of English. The tour is given in Spanish and if you need a translation you read the pamphlet. During the tour, there were lengthy explanations of the exhibits but maybe 3 or 4 sentences in the corresponding brochure. Despite that minor issue, I recommend seeing the palace and taking the tour.

I didn’t have this place on my list, but I’d definitely recommend it! The patio and gardens are really charming, with vintage furniture and interesting details from the old house to explore. I believe we paid around €8 per person just to access the patio, and it was well worth it

If you love the Spanish gardens, definitely come here. Lots of beautiful courtyards you can walk through with lots of beautiful flowers and plants. Definitely worth a visit!

This was an unexpected surprise. Deep inside a neighborhood in Cordoba sits this unassuming place. The many courtyards are really quite beautiful and a nice respite from the bustle of the city. A tour takes less than an hour and in addition to the courtyard you’ll see some impressive rooms with period furniture. We came in Late April and many trees in the courtyards were teeming with oranges and lemons.

It is a beautiful treasure, worth tk take the full tour of the house. There are so many beautiful patio(courtyards), and on the first floor the house is preserved with many antique treasures. It's worth to visit, we really enjoyed it. The house tour is a guided tour and explanation are in Spanish but they have the pamphlets in English(for sure) or may be in other languages.

Nice place to visit and walk around. Lots to see, however a lot of rooms are taped off so you can only see into the room. Amazing collection of furniture, paintings, and allsorts. Well maintained gardens.

One of those places that a lot of tourists seem to miss out on but is definitely a must if one wants to enjoy true Spanish Garden splendor. 12 patios (great for photography/photo shoots) and an option for 3 more Euros to take the indoor tour of the palacio. A palacio is basically any fancy home of anyone who is an aristocrat/rich person, so there are many palacios and you don't have to be associated w/ royalty to live in one. 5 Euros to get in, located a little further out from the other attractions. Key Patios: Patio de Gatos (patio of cats) and Patio de naranjas (Patio of oranges). I love this garden place b/c it's not too trimmed and manicured like a French garden but has a nice balanced natural look that is not unkempt. The white walls with blue shutters, fountains, flower pots against the clean white facade is a traditional look that a lot of Spanish patios and places will feature. Andalusian traits tend to be wrought iron fences, painted tiles, white washed walls, flower pots, orange trees, and cobble stone paths. Come here for good photography, less tourists, and for those who love quiet and more private tours of a palacio or Spanish decor. Tip: don't get hung up on the first patio when you first come in for photos... take a look at the rest of the 12 and then decide your photos! My favorite is the one with the blue shutters, vines of oranges looking outside

La Palacio Museo de Viana was one of the highlights of our stay in Cordoba. As you may be aware Cordoba is known for its patios and gardens and the best of which you will find at La Palacio de Viana. I believe there are about 6 to 8 different patios areas which were developed by different families/parties and they have very different themes. Some of the patios have beautiful water features, some have gorgeous fruit trees, some have sculptures and some have a little bit of everything. Note: You probably don't need to get the tour as they give you a pamphlet explaining mostly everything and you'd likely enjoy it more just walking around and taking pictures.
