Hello Kexon,
We have used www.parkinglamezquita.com when we visited Cordoba, the car parking is secure and very near to all the interesting places,I think that it is about 12 euros per day.
If you look at the site it also gives you a very good map regarding how to get to it, beware to drive slowly and not take the wrong roads around the Mezquita ( camera controlled and heavy fines ! ). The website has a choice of languages including English...
Have a good time !
Regards,
Gordon

We parked just the other side of the river in a sort of residential area & walked across the bridge. It was quite a few years ao now, so I don't remember any real detail, but hope it's something you might be able to 'streetview' to see if it would be suitable

We did the same as Chrissiehope and found a nice cafe on that side of the bridge to break the journey !!

we did the same as above. parked on the other side of the bridge where theres free street parking. well kinda free as there was the typical guy helping you park and wanting a few euros for the pleasure. theres also the underground carpark very near the mez and another abit futher around the walls

We also have parked on the 'other side', ok for day visits to Cordoba but I'm told not advisable overnight.
There are some good local bars there and if you use the Roman Bridge over the river it takes you very close to the Mezquita ,also worth a visit is the museum at the end of the Roman Bridge... a bit different.!
And don't forget to take a padlock to fasten on the railings..as a love token... :thumbup:

I don't remember having a problem parking in Cordoba. As with other posters I parked a little outside and walked the short distance to the centre of the city.
