More things to do in Seville
As the largest city in Southern Spain, Seville boasts an intriguing history, fascinating culture, magnificent architecture, and plenty of things to do. Located in Andalusia, the southernmost autonomous community in Spain, the Seville area has a population of about 1.7 million. This city is rumored to have been built by Hercules himself, and with plenty of ornate Moorish castles and cobblestoned medieval streets, it might seem believable.
Seville dates back nearly 2,200 years ago. Over the years, numerous civilizations have called this city their home, including Iberians, Romans, Moors, and Christians. According to historians, the Seville area was settled during the Bronze Age. The Romans initially founded Seville as ‘Hisplais,’ thriving under their rule. Several monuments survive from this period, including the city’s aqueduct.
In the early 8th century, the Moors brought a massive army to the city, and it eventually fell under their control. They ruled for the next few hundred years, rebranding the city under the name ‘Isbiliya,’ and erecting several architectural masterpieces, including the Alcazar Palace.
In 1248, Fernando III of Castille took over the city, claiming Christian rule. Seville thrived well into the 16th and 17th centuries, becoming the most important European port as the Spanish departed to explore the Americas. It continued to grow until the 20th century, when unfortunately, the Spanish Civil War caused thousands of deaths.
At the end of the 20th century, prosperity returned to Seville. Today, Seville is the most sophisticated city in Andalusia, attracting many tourists who come to see its architectural gems, Flamenco performances, and vibrant festivals. Two of Seville’s most notable festivals, Feria de Abril and Semana Santa, happen two weeks apart in April. Feria de Abril is known for filling the streets with music, dancing, drinking, and singing, while Semana Santa is a more serious holy celebration.
As one of the sunniest European cities, there is never a wrong time to visit Seville. The weather is generally warm, creating the perfect atmosphere for sightseeing. There are three UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Seville. Most notable is the Cathedral of Saint Mary of the See, one of the most magnificent structures in Spain. Located in the center of the city, this structure began as a Moorish mosque, but over the years, it has gained Baroque, Renaissance, and Neo-Gothic influences. The Alcazar, the second UNESCO site, is one of Spain’s best-known castles, and is attached to the cathedral. The last site is the Archivo de Indias, built in 1585. This structure houses a vast collection of documents on the exploration of the New World.
One thing that makes Seville unique is the blend of different religious and geographic cultures throughout the city, including Jewish, Moorish, Gypsy, and Arabic influences. You can even taste some of the North African flavors in the cuisine, including gazpacho, honey-sweetened pastries, dates, and almonds.
Vibrant diversity, intriguing history, and an exhilarating culture make Seville anything but boring. From the cuisine and weather to the architecture and history, Seville is a shining star in every category.
