La torre de Calahorra es una Fortaleza de origen Islámico que funcionaba como entrada y protección del puente Romano.⁣ ⁣ Por un precio de 4,5 euros, puedes acceder a un museo interior con varios pisos que enseñan episodios de la época del Califato. Es una pequeña muestra de cómo las 3 culturas convivían pacíficamente en el al-Ándalus.⁣ ⁣ Tienen impresionantes maquetas de la Mezquita de Córdoba y de la Alhambra de Granada. Además, puedes escuchar música Andalusí, ver objetos cuotidianos o instrumentos médicos.⁣ ⁣ Dispones de unas guías gratuitas con las cuales obtienes una explicación más detallada, aunque en ocasiones los audios se bloqueaban.⁣ ⁣ En la zona superior hay un mirador para disfrutar de las vistas desde la otra parte del río. Puedes ver una panorámica del skyline de la ciudad con el puente romano, la mezquita y el casco antiguo al frente. Ideal para relajarte y tomar unas fotos al atardecer. El personal que me atendió me pareció atento y agradable.

Una visita interesante que nos traslada a las épocas del Califato de Córdoba. Le he puesto un cinco, pero las narraciones de autoguia dejan un poco que desear en cuanto a la sincronía de las mismas. Por lo demás, excelente, las vistas desde arriba son fenomenales 👌

Tipo un museo. Puedes pagar la entrada de solo subir o la completa: subir a la torre y ver las salas. Muy bonito de ver. Recomiendo la entrada completa por 4,5 €.
