Walking Holidays in Andalucia

Books

A rich and thriving culture where literature, science and religious tolerance flourished for 700 years in Andalucia, medieval Spain.

Andalusia is not a weeping wall; neither it is a captured land we seek to liberate. Andalusia was not lost with the past, yet an idea to be true in the past and we are capable of realizing in the future - Andalusia is the idea of the just state - The equality in the rights between all humans from all races and faiths - The respect of the scientists and the knowledgeable and the ideals and the thinkers - Andalusia is the power of excellence in all domains.
