Applying the word goblin to a city has no other purpose than to highlight some charms, capable of enchanting or at least exalting the imagination of those who visit it.

Córdoba is, precisely, one of those cities, possessed by the spirit of a very particular elf, where the atmosphere is still breathed, culturally rarefied, of the people of the Three Religions -Christian, Muslim and Jewish- that in their own way they definitely marked it for posterity.

Not surprisingly, it was the pearl of Al-Andalus and the capital of the Muslim Caliphate, from which the destinies of that conquered Hispania were directed, which in turn, was the precedent of the Crusades.

But Córdoba also has the mystery of its Jewish quarter, with its narrow streets, its dark corners and its dreamlike atmosphere, also the origin of numerous legends.

And of course, the Christian fervor, materialized alongside them, adding their particular color, their faith and their ancient traditions.

So narrow that some of them do not fit two people at the same time.
