Discover Seville<\/h2>\n

Seville is large and you won\u2019t be able to see much of it in just one day; you can, however, get a good idea and perhaps plan your next visit or spend a few more days. Seville is the most populous city in Andalusia and the fourth largest in Spain. Possibly of Phoenician origin, the Guadalquivir River has provided an ideal setting for different civilisations throughout history, creating what is now Seville.<\/p>\n

Make no mistake \u2013 the fact that Seville has no beach is no obstacle to enjoying this Andalusian province. Seville is one of the greatest cultural highlights of our region and, if you love Andalusia, you will definitely want to visit it. The best way to get to know Seville is by visiting its monuments and places of interest. It is a truly monumental city, so there is an enormous amount to see.<\/p>\n

Plaza de Espa\u00f1a<\/h3>\n

\"Plaza<\/a><\/p>\n

The Plaza de Espa\u00f1a, together with Mar\u00eda Luisa Park, are two places you should not miss. Built at the beginning of the 20th century for the Ibero-American Exhibition, it is today the headquarters of the Spanish government sub-delegation. One of the most impressive squares in Spain, perfect for strolling, taking photos and hiring a boat on the canal.<\/p>\n
