Places Of Interest In Spain – Seville
Author : andrew clive
A tourist plans his tour expecting beautiful weather with beautiful nature, great monuments, imposing buildings, clean and tidy beach so that he can make his tour memorable. Seville is the only place in Europe which meets all the expectations of the tourist. Seville, the capital of Andalusia is regarded as the fourth largest province of Spain. It has a long history dating back to the Romans. Tourists are of the opinion that some of the historic buildings found in Seville are so unique that they have no parallel in entire Europe.
Places of interest:
Seville Cathedral built in 1401 is the first place of visit by every visitor. The cathedral is a monumental building of Gothic architecture. It has the largest interior and is luxuriously decorated. Historians say that the cathedral is built on a mosque which was built by Moors. The bell tower is most attractive. The statue of Ei Giraldillo has been installed just near the bell tower. The interior has many works of stunningly beautiful sculptures.
Facing the cathedral is the Alcazar which is believed to be a palace built by Moors. Interestingly, the palace took about 500 years to complete. Historical records say that the construction of the palace was completed in the year 1681. The garden abutting the Alcazar is another place which no one should miss. The garden has the blend of Moorish, Andalusia and
Christian tradition.
Watchtower is another place of interest in Seville. In Spanish language it is called Torre Del Oro. The watchtower is believed to have been built by the Almohad dynasty. It was actually used for defense purpose. The watchtower is built on the river bed and it is one of the most beautiful watchtowers ever built.
The tourists never miss visiting the town hall which is built in Plateresque style. Archaeologists say that the town hall is among the very few buildings built in Plateresque style and it has been very well preserved.
The University of Seville is another place of visit by all tourists. The building in which the university is now housed was actually a tobacco factory. In fact, that was the first tobacco factory ever established in Europe. The building is the best example of Baroque architecture. Now the building is surrounded by a beautiful garden.
Seville is very well connected by road, rail and by air. There are enough villas, apartments and hotels where the tourist can enjoy a comfortable and luxurious stay. The hotels serve the traditional food at the most reasonable rates.
