JEWISH TOUR IN CORDOBA - SPAIN
WE ARE ORGANIZING FACE-TO-FACE TOURS AGAIN!
JUDAIC TOURISM is a social project, carried out by members from local Jewish communities, with the mission of showing Jewish life in Central & South America cities and Worldwide.
As part of the NETWORK with members of Jewish communities in different cities, we offer tours and Jewish experiences around the world.
We would like to share an interesting proposal, carried out by our partners / fellow travelers of DU KIUM (coexistence)
Du Kium (coexistence) is a cross-cultural project for all those who wish to rediscover Judaism in Spain, past and present.
It is encouraging to discover that despite the difficulties, in the Middle Ages Sefarad had the longest list of Jewish philosophers, poets, doctors, astronomers, accountants, rabbis, mathematicians and scholars and through historically accurate tours the goal is to foster important social change making past dreams and ambitions a future reality.
Going through one of the best preserved Jewish neighborhoods in Spain, visitors will retrace the footsteps of the great Jewish thinkers of the past. Participants will discover the origins of the first great Jewish renaissance in Europe, as well as the difficult period that preceded it.
Through clues, tangible and intangible, participants will be able to appreciate the significance of Sephardi legacy.
Today, this legacy is alive and well, it permits us to reestablish local communities, and highlight the impact of Sepharad on the Spanish culture, and Spain on the Jewish people, creating a bridge that will lead us to a resurgence of Jewish Community in this century.
The proposal it´s like a journey, more than a mere tour... it is a conversation; an exploration of the Spanish Jewish Life in the Middle Age, for all who are interested in Jewish life.
In addition, these Jewish Tours provide meaningful, fascinating, and educational experiences through places profound Jewish heritage.
Cordoba has an important, rich and awe-inspiring Jewish and local history.
Our key to understanding it deeply is our vast knowledge. Even knowledge alone is not enough; it is also important to know how to enthusiastically relate it.
