General presentation
Séville
Intense Andalusian metropolis, between Alcázar, cathedral, patios, popular neighborhoods, Guadalquivir and very lively evenings.
The discovery of Seville revolves around Alcazar, Cathedral and Giralda and Plaza de Espana. The stay thus alternates between the big city, urban life, heritage and riverscapes, which gives a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 4 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: extreme heat in summer and great tours to reserve. The trip can be organised without a car if the drop point and local connections are selected in advance. The main sites are generally easy to access.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Cathedral
Cathédrale de Séville et Giralda
The Seville Cathedral and the Giralda make up a landmark that is both monumental and very lively, as the route alternates large spaces, carved details and urban views from the higher levels. The city is better understood by observing the transitions between monumental exterior and interior more contained. The hours of lateral light, early or late in the day, serve this reading.
Palace
Real Alcázar
The Real Alcázar impresses with its sequence of courses, covered passages and volumes of power, each transition revealing another atmosphere. The place is understood as it climbs up from the gardens to the interior staircases where the material changes visual temperature. For the depth of the visit, prefer a more set time range, without influence.
Monumental square
Plaza de España
Plaza de España unfolds as a large-scale urban scene, where architecture and hydraulic routes create a very visual rhythm of walk. The place invites to move slowly, stop at the level of a mosaic detail and then resume the loop. The best perceptions often come when razing light mitigates aggressive contrasts.
