If you travel to Spain, you have to visit Andalucia. It’s a must. When I see people talking about traveling to Spain, they always seem to list Madrid and Barcelona first. I get it. I mean if you only have a limited time in Europe, you just try to hit the largest cities. You think “well I can at least say I’ve been to Spain if I go to Barcelona.” And I’m not knocking either of these cities. I’ve been to both several times and they are quite enjoyable. However if you just stick to those two cities, you miss out on a lot of the charm and character of Spain.
Andalucia is the southern-most region of Spain. It’s also the largest autonomous community in the country. Flamenco dancing was born in Andalucia. Tapas are severed free with beverages in many restaurants. Things are cheaper and the weather is nicer.
I have also been blessed with the opportunity to live in Andalucia. I have been working as an English teacher in the lovely city of Granada for the past year and a half. While I haven’t been to every single town and corner of Andalucia, I have spent many weekends traveling to different parts of Andalucia. In the past year and a half, I have accumulated lots of photos of Andalucia. So I thought I would gather some of my best and favorite photos from all over the region of Andalucia.
So here are 15 photos that will make you want to visit Andalucia, Spain.
Have you traveled to Andalucia before?
