If any one place comes close to rolling together everything that’s quintessentially Andalucian, it’s Seville.
Here in the region’s capital and biggest city, that special Andalucian way of life is distilled into its purest and most intense form.
It has more narrow, winding, medieval lanes and romantic, hidden plazas soaked in the scent of orange blossom than half of Andalucía’s other cities put together.
It’s the home of those two bulwarks of Andalucian tradition, flamenco and bullfighting, and its heritage of art and architecture is without rival in southern Spain.
But Seville’s most developed art form is that of enjoying oneself.
To be out at night among the city’s relaxed, fun-loving crowds in the tapas bars, on the streets, in the clubs and discos is an experience you won’t forget.

Flamenco Show
Flamenco is a genre of music, song and dance from Andalusia in southern Spain, noted for its energetic, staccato style. The fine tradition of Silvero Franconetti's tablao in Seville. These 'tablaos' act as forums where talent and creativity continue to evolve. This is a show that combines opera and flamenco. A unique mix of the high arts that you won't see anywhere else. Flamenco is a musical form that sometimes has dancing in it. The most authentic flamenco is when a singer and a guitarist spontaneously perform. |
Cordoba
Cordoba is captivating Andalucian city with attractive monuments, including its Alcazar fort and gardens, mosque, cathedral, synagogue and Jewish quarter. The Mezquita (Mosque) of Cordoba is a fascinating building famous for the forest of pillars and arches inside the main hall. The site was originally a Roman temple, then a Visigothic church, before the Umayyad Moors built the Mezquita. After the Spanish Reconquista a cathedral was built into the center of the large Moorish building. |
