If you're ever lucky enough to travel to southern Spain, Seville is a must-see destination. Known for Flamenco and it's beautiful infrastructure, Seville is a very walkable city full of life and romance. A weekend is plenty of time to get to know the city, although you'll be wishing you could stay longer.
Plaza de España
Built in 1929 during the Ibero-American Exposition, Plaza de España is a beautiful building decorated with mosaic tiles and Moorish architecture. You can rent a boat and paddle around the canal or relax and sit on one of the elaborately painted ceramic benches.
Alcázar of Seville
This ancient building dates back to the middle ages, during the time of ancient Roman history. The Alcázar contains Moorish and Gothic architecture which shows the different stages in which it was built and renovated. This elaborate structure contains many beautiful gardens and many scenes from Game of Thrones were filmed here!
Seville Cathedral
The Seville Cathedral is the largest gothic church and is the third largest church in Europe. The cathedral is considered a World Heritage Site by UNESCO as well as the Alcázar.
Metropol Parasol
Seville is known for its small, winding streets and historic neighborhoods. The neighborhood of Santa Cruz is an ancient Jewish corner of the city and contains many old buildings.
Old Town
Wander the streets of Old Town and see that it is lined with shops and bars. This is the perfect place to go for a caña (glass) of beer and some tapas. Many people hop from one bar to the next, eating their way through the best gastronomy in Andalusia.
I recommend croquetas bacalao, a Serranito or Jamón Ibérico.
Flamenco Show
Since Flamenco has its origins in the Andalusia region, it is only fitting to go to a proper Flamenco show. Flamenco is an art that combines dancing, singing and the famous guitar. It is full of culture and passion. Most shows run twice a night.
