Cordoba has a ton of architectural vestiges left over from the Spanish colonial era. The Monasterio de Santa Teresa is clearly one of the most impressive. The cream and pink Carmelite convent is home to a museum of religious art and a courtyard that wafts with orange blossom and pomegranate.

7. Casa Che Guevara in Alta Gracia

While technically not in Cordoba, the 45 minute trip to Alta Gracia is worth it. This is where one Ernesto Guevara lived as a youth, well before he became the most famous revolutionary in the world. The Casa Che Guevara is now a popular museum and de facto pilgrimage site in the town of 43,000 people. Alta Gracia is not without other attractions as well. Several landmarks in town in fact are part of Cordoba province’s Jesuit Block and Estancias UNESCO World Heritage Site inscription.

5. Patio Olmos

I rarely recommend a shopping mall as a must-see attraction but when it’s as architecturally relevant and historic as Patio Olmos, shop ’til you drop. Just take the time to enjoy the views between stores.
