SEVILLE

OVERVIEW

The city of fiestas and siestas, matadors and flamenco dancers, Seville is intense, vibrant and full of life, yet at the same time remarkably charming and equally as seductive as its mythological son Don Juan. Bestowed with beautiful architecture and ancient ruins, the city has featured as a backdrop in many great literary works from Bizet’s Carmen to Cervantes’ Don Quixote.

Set on the banks of the placid Guadalquivir River, the city is one of the most important cultural and historic centres in Spain. The old town is

 
 

brimming with architectural gems, from the 12th century Moorish mianret La Giralda to the 15th century Gothic cathedral. Don’t miss its narrow streets and quiet alleys embellished with flowered balaconies and clourful facades.

Seville is credited with the invention of tapas and hence there are over a thousand bars across the city. They become particularly lively after dusk teeming with local life and exuberant flamenco dancers.
