Seville is the biggest city in the region of Andalusia and at the same time, one of the most intriguing and fascinating in entire Spain. The emblem of Seville is the Bell Tower Giralda, which you will notice from the first moment you step on the streets of the city.
Even though it is situated in the middle of a large but low plain, the city receives its life from the Guadalquivir River, which crosses through the south of Seville.
Important things about Seville

After America was discovered, Seville flourished and was transformed into the beauty that it is today.
