Walk like a Sevillanos

When it was my boyfriend's birthday last May, I decided to give him a present that would also be enjoyable for me: a visit to Seville. I already heard so many positive stories on this Spanish city in the South that I got very curious. Since the city is situated in Andalusia, which is the Southern midland of Spain, it gets very hot during summer. A firm 38 degrees scares all the Spanish away to the coast, which makes the months of July and August low season (good for the hotel prizes!). Despite the hot weather and non-stop siesta advices, we decided to embrace the heat and do our sightseeing tours anyway. But then in a ten times slower speed and with a cooling down at the swimming pool at the end of the day (you can't survive without). So what should you see in Seville? Plaza de Espana has beautiful fountains, Parque Maria Luisa is full of green, like walking in a jungle. It has white pigeons and typical spanish tiled fountains. The royal palace, the Alcazar of Seville, has an impressive garden, is Unesco heritage and is the oldest royal palace in Europe that is still in use. Seville is a city that you visit for the history, cultural heritage, museums, parques and of course the Spanish food. But on that, I will write a separate post!
