Take note!
1. The Giralda and Seville Cathedral: A classic that never goes out of style. Climbing the Giralda is a must: the panoramic views of the city are simply spectacular. It's also the largest Gothic cathedral in the world. Did you know that the remains of Christopher Columbus rest here?
2. Royal Alcázar of Seville: It looks like a palace straight out of a Arabian Nights tale. Exotic gardens, Mudejar courtyards, and a magical atmosphere. It's been the setting for series like Game of Thrones, and for good reason.
3. Plaza de España: A masterpiece of Andalusian regionalism. Strolling through this square is like traveling back in time. It's also a favorite photo spot: curves, tiles, and perfect reflections.
4. Triana Neighborhood: Authentic, with a flamenco soul and tapas flavor. Crossing the Guadalquivir River over the Triana Bridge, you'll discover one of Seville's most distinctive neighborhoods. Ideal for dining, listening to live music, or simply letting loose.
5. Metropol Parasol (Las Setas): Modern, innovative, and very urban. This gigantic wooden observation deck in the heart of Plaza de la Encarnación offers incredible views and a contemporary feel to the historic city.
6. María Luisa Park: A green oasis where you can slowly lose yourself. Ideal for a picnic, a bike ride, or simply relaxing under the shade of its centuries-old trees. It's right next to Plaza de España.
7. Archivo de Indias: A World Heritage Site and a treasure for history lovers, it houses much of the documentation related to the discovery of America.
8. Sierpes Street and surrounding areas: If shopping is your thing, you can't miss this lively street, brimming with local shops, cafes, and charming corners. You'll also find boutiques and more alternative options nearby.
9. Casa de Pilatos: A lesser-known but spectacular palace. A blend of styles and cultures: Mudejar, Renaissance, Gothic… A perfect spot for those looking for less touristy, more authentic places.
10. Sunset at the Torre del Oro: One of the best things to do in the city. Stroll along the Guadalquivir and enjoy the sunset with the tower's golden silhouette reflected in the water. A perfect end to a day in Seville.
