Visit Seville this November for a truly unique experience
With a heritage steeped in medieval, renaissance and baroque cultures, Seville was also heavily influenced by Arabic culture. The city offers visitors a host of notable attractions, including: The Cathedral of Seville – Under construction from 1401 to 1519, this cathedral is one of the biggest religious monuments in Europe, both in terms of volume and area. Lavish decorations, including gilded details, adorn this prime example of Gothic and Baroque architecture. It is must-see for all architectural enthusiasts and is open daily, with free entrance on Sundays. The Museum of Fine Arts of Seville – Established in 1835, this museum houses masterpieces from some of the most significant artists of the ‘Sevillian School’. Visitors will find works by Murillo, Pacheco, Zurbarán, and Valdés Leal, amongst others, on display in this fantastic building. Seville also boasts a vibrant nightlife, including activities such as botelloning, where large groups of people gather at specific meetings points across the city to share a drink as an alternative to bars or restaurants. Two of the most popular botelloning venues in the city are the banks of the Guadalquivir River and the Plaza San Salvador. Seville is often overlooked for other major cities in Spain, but with so much to see and do, it is a must see for all travellers.
