Seville, a beautiful city in Spain, always leaves its mark that many travellers define it as special. This may be due to the grandeur of its monuments. Or perhaps the charm of areas such as Triana.
It may possibly be the Spanish guitar music that you hear playing in the streets. Some say that it’s the tradition of its festivals, and many are convinced that the real reason is because of the tapas. No matter what is it, you will always find yourself travelling back to Seville as it is one of the top destinations to visit.
Few of the main attractions are the Giralda tower, the Cathedral and the Real Alcázar of Seville. La Giralda is a city icon and one of its main charms lies in its viewpoint. The spectacular views of Seville are fantastic with its courtyards of orange trees, typical in Andalusia, and a close-up of the largest Gothic temple in Europe, the Cathedral. While you are here make sure you visit the Real Alcázar which reveals an extraordinary palace full of details. If you are here for a summer getaway, take advantage of the night visits and the festival held in its gardens.
There is much more to Seville than its undeniable monumentality. It is a beautiful city of lively streets and large open spaces such as the huge Plaza de España, María Luisa Park, and the avant-garde Setas de Sevilla. If you want to enjoy the authentic atmosphere of Seville, try some tapas in the old town, in popular areas such as Alameda, Macarena, Nervión, Los Remedios or Triana. There are many other cuisines that you can try such as their marinated ‘pescaíto’ (fish), small filled rolls, typical snails, fino (white wine) and manzanilla (sweet wine). Don’t forget a nice cold beer is a must on any tapas outing.
