Welcome to Seville, the breathtaking capital of Spain’s southern Andalusia region! Famous for its passion, traditional Flamenco dancing, orange-lined streets, and incredible Moorish architecture, Seville is a city that captures every tourist’s heart.
If you are planning your Andalusian adventure, here are the top 4 absolute must-visit places in Seville:
- The Cathedral of Seville and La Giralda
This is the largest Gothic cathedral in the world and the final resting place of Christopher Columbus. After exploring the massive golden interior, climb up the ramps of the famous La Giralda bell tower for a spectacular 360-degree view of the entire city.
Tip: Lines can be huge under the sun. We highly recommend booking a Seville Cathedral and Giralda Skip-the-Line Guided Tour online in advance. - Royal Alcázar of Seville (Real Alcázar)
A stunning royal palace that is still used today by the Spanish royal family. It is a masterpiece of Mudéjar architecture, filled with beautiful tiled rooms, detailed arches, and massive green gardens with fountains and peacocks. (Game of Thrones fans will recognize this place as the Water Gardens of Dorne!). To avoid the long queues and fully understand the royal palace history, it is best to book a Seville Alcázar Guided Tour with Priority Entrance before you arrive. - Plaza de España
Located inside Luisa Park, this is arguably the most beautiful public square in the whole of Spain. Built in a massive semi-circle, it features a beautiful canal where you can rent small boats, gorgeous bridges, and tiled alcoves representing every province of Spain. - Setas de Sevilla (Metropol Parasol)
For a touch of modern Seville, visit the world’s largest wooden structure. Looking like giant mushrooms, you can take an elevator to the top walkway at sunset to enjoy incredible views of Seville’s old town while the city lights turn on.
