Excursion
to Cordoba with CLIC Teachers
The bus will leave from CLIC and in Cordoba there
will be a visit to the Mezquite (Mosque), lunch
in the Jewish Quarter and a visit to the historical
quarter. Cordoba is a 2-hour journey from Seville
and is a city which tells us much about the splendour
of the Arabandaluz culture. As well as visiting
a different city, students will be able to enjoy
the Andalusian countryside from the bus including
the olive groves and the indigenous vegetation
typical of the region. An unforgettable excursion
that will allow students to understand the differences
and similarities between the different Spanish
regions
