Priego de Córdoba

Fodor's Review:

The jewel of Córdoba's countryside is Priego de Córdoba, a town of 14,000 inhabitants at the foot of Mt. Tinosa. Wander down Calle del Río opposite the town hall to see 18th-century mansions, once the homes of silk merchants. At the end of the street is the Fuente del Rey (King's Fountain), with some 130 water jets, built in 1803. Don't miss the lavish baroque churches of La Asunción and La Aurora or the Barrio de la Villa, an old Moorish quarter with a maze of narrow streets of white-wall buildings.
