Romantic Seville

Seville is without doubt one of the most romantic cities in all Spain especially in spring when the scent of jasmine and orange blossom fill the air. The legacy of the Moors, who ruled this city for half a millennium, is evident in the courtyards and gardens and the ever-present sound of trickling water from fountains. Seville’s vast Gothic cathedral is crowned by the Giralda belltower, formerly a minaret, and the sprawling royal palace, begun in the 8th century, is considered a masterpiece of Mudéjar architecture.

The passion of its people is laid bare in the solemn Easter Week processions and exuberant spring celebration that follow, the Feria de Abril, which are known the world over. And there are scores of smaller festivals held throughout the year where you can admire the colourful flamenco costumes, and join the locals for a glass of two of chilled fino sherry.

The strains of flamenco are regularly heard throughout the city, especially in the traditional neighbourhood of Triana where many of the best informal flamenco shows can be seen.
