Welcome to Seville, Spain

Home to flamenco, bullfighting and the April Fair (Feria de Abril) Seville represents the pure essence of Andalucia. Whether you are eating delicious tapas on a sunny terrace next to the Royal Alcazar (royal palace), or taking a romantic stroll through the monumental Plaza de España, Sevilla will captivate you. As they say, “Sevilla tiene duende” (Seville has soul).

Romans, Muslims, and Christians all fought over Seville due to its important location next to the Guadalquivir river. By the 15^th century, the city had managed to monopolize trade with the New World becoming one of the richest cities of the Spanish Empire. Sevilla’s Golden Age sadly came to an end in the 18^th century when the sand bars of the Guadalquivir river filled, blocking the passage of large sea vessels.

Today, Seville is a cosmopolitan city that maintains its strong Andalusian roots while offering tons to do and see to visitors. Although both the Alcazar de Sevilla and the Plaza de España are not to be missed, make sure you plan enough time to get lost in the medieval Jewish Quarter of Santa Cruz, discover its massive Gothic cathedral, enjoy a flamenco show and visit some of its marvelous palaces such as Casa de Pilatos and Palacio de las Dueñas.

Without a doubt, Seville is one of the best cities to visit in Spain!

* Extra tip: we highly recommend you to avoid visiting during the summer months, when temperatures commonly surpass 40ºC (104ºF) and even Sevillians try to get out of the city! For more information, see When to visit Seville.
