10 Things You Cannot Miss in Sevilla

1. The Food

Please refer to our 15 Must-Try Foods In Sevilla post to find out more about the delicious Andalusian cuisine.

2. La Catedral de Sevilla

The number one must see, and you definitely won't miss it. It is the largest cathedral in the world! It is located right in the city center. Plan to spend a few hours visiting the cathedral. Inside you can see beautiful artwork, treasures, and even the tomb of Columbus.

3. La Giralda

La giralda is the bell tower of la cathedral de Sevilla. When you go to visit the cathedral, make your way over to la giralda and climb your way up to the top to get a spectacular view of Sevilla.

4. Los Reales Alcázares

The oldest royal palace still in use in Europe. It is absolutely beautiful, and was originally a Moorish fort. You'll be able to see the palace in the new season of Game of Thrones in 2015 as they just recently filmed here, but it is much more astonishing to see it in person. Just across from the cathedral in the city center. Plan to spend several hours here when visiting, and remember to be prepared for some heat if you're here in the late afternoon.

We will also be taking wedding photos here the Monday after our wedding!

5. La Plaza de España

Featured in Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones, this 1929 plaza was built on the edge of the María Luisa Park. You can walk around admiring the tile maps of all of Spain's provinces or rent a boat to see the plaza from a different perspective.

Don't forget to go for a walk at the María Luisa Park afterwards!

6. A Walk Through the City Center

7. Las Setas

8. El Puente de Triana

What is so special about this bridge? The view. You will see the city from a different perspective, from right above the Río Guadalquivir (we could also call it the Rio Grande or Big River, if we were speaking Spanish or English, and not Arabic).

9. La Iglesia del Salvador

This is one of the many churches in Sevilla. What is so special about it? It is truly beautiful. The ticket to access the Cathedral allows you to visit this church as well, so do not forget to go once you are done with the Cathedral and the Giralda.

There is also a very famous bar with beer and tinto right in front of it, so go get a drink before or after to cool down from all of that Sevillian heat! There is a "catch": you will drink standing in the street, there are no seats.
