About Seville
The soul of Andalusia — the Alcázar's Moorish splendour, the world's largest Gothic cathedral, passionate flamenco, orange-scented lanes, and the heartbeat of Al-Andalus.
Seville is Spain's most romantic city — where Moorish architecture meets fiery flamenco, where orange trees line narrow lanes, and where the Guadalquivir River reflects 3,000 years of history. The Real Alcázar is a Moorish-Mudéjar palace of stunning beauty (used as Dorne in Game of Thrones). The cathedral houses Columbus's tomb and the Giralda tower (a converted Almohad minaret). The Barrio Santa Cruz was the medieval Jewish quarter. For Gulf visitors, Seville's Islamic heritage is profound — the city was the capital of the Almohad Caliphate.
