I read most of the book before my visit to Andalusia and it was very helpful as it gave me details about what celebrations take place across the year and where. It was also helpful in knowing about the culture and famous dishes and it gave very good ideas about how to plan your visit and how much time each city or town needs.
I love lonely Planet books. This book was particularly beautiful as is Andalucìa. In the past I gave found sone lonely planet. Books a bit dry and text heavy. The new look of this series of books looks great and tells a story unlike those of the past. However, there is a price to pay for this glossy look. I suspect that only the main tourist sites and those places that are deemed worthy are included in the book. This is a huge disappointment as often the lesser visited places in many places j have visited have turned out to be my favourites. Finally lonely planet has drastically reduced the number of places to eat and accomodation suggestions. I glues this is an admission that the internet exists and places change over time. Now suggestions are limited to best three or four places to stay or eat. I find this a huge step backwards. But I am not sure what the happy medium is either.
Of the four Andalucia travel guides I just read, this is the one I'm hauling along with me. It's nicely information-dense in terms of history and culture for rereading on the flight over. And the detailed, opinionated recommendations give me the clearest idea of what will and will not be worth my time. The detail is such that I can tell which of their 'must-visits' are probably not my thing at all; it's not just an issue of following their lead. I also appreciated how this guide was more neutral than the others regarding the culture. There can be a fine line between praising a group and condescending to it. Now if they can just add DK-level photo sections....
Rome gave Andalucia and Spain their language. Today's Castillian Spanish is basically colloquial Latin.
The Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares was used as a location in Lawrence of Arabia. The Museo looks like an Arab Palace. It was built in 1929 for the Exposicion Iberoamericana in Parque de Maria Luisa in Seville.
Lonely Planet travel guides are the only travel guides I read from cover to cover. This one even has sections on Andalucian architecture, Flamenco and Bullfighting which I found all three very interesting (less so for the Wildlife part).
This format is so different from Lonely Planet's usual guidebooks and I didn't like it. There's very little useful information about accommodation, places to eat and what to do or see. And, so much of the book is suggestions that require a car!
It was ok but it has the same issues of the other LP guides: a lot of infos about restaurants and hotels, but few data about history and art. Who cares about eating thai in Granada?
