| Seville, capital of Andalusia, Roman, Arabic, Renaissance, Baroque,
Latin American, Marian, flamenco, bull-fighting, modern, festive,
bright, perfumed, sea-faring, traditional, hospitable, gracious, cosmopolitan,
religious...All of these adjectives, and many more can be applied
to this city, which not only typifies all that is "Spanish"
and "Andalusian", but also contains such innumerous artistic,
cultural, leisure, social and tourist attractions, that is has also
become one of the most universal, best-known and most-visited cities
in the world, birthplace and inspiration of writers, painters and
artists in general.
Impossible to find another urban centre which boasts such varied
and unusual monuments and places of such beauty as the Giralda,
the Cathedral, Los Reales Alcázares (Arabic Palace), the
Torre del Oro, the Patio de los Naranjos, the Maestranza (bull-ring),
the Casa de Pilatos, the Plaza de España, the María
Luisa Park, the Maestranza theatre, the St. Telmo Palace, the Archivo
de las Indias (Indian Archives),the Barrio de Santa Cruz (Santa
Cruz district in the city centre), the Lonja,*** the Palacio Arzobispal
(Archbishop´s Palace), the Fábrica de Tabacos
(Tabacco Factory), the Town Hall (Town Hall), the Dueñas
Palace, the D.Fadrique tower, the city walls, the Macarena basilica,
the Fine Art Museum, the Contemporary Art museum, the Alameda de
Hércules ***, the barrio de Triana (Triana district), the
bridges over the Guadalquivir, the Cartuja island and monastery
and the site of Expo 92, the buildings from the Universal exhibition
in 1929, the Casa de Luca de Tena, the patios of its traditional
houses, the balconies and railings, as well as an endless number
of churches, convents and other details which convert the ancient
city centre into an open-air museum. If we add to this its taverns,
its cuisine, its festivals, and the humour and hospitality of its
people, we have formed a generous whole, full of colour, drama,
light, music, joy, tradition and modernity which is difficult to
match.
