6Seville, Spain
Seville’s historic center is a huge tapestry of architectural influences.
Around the Cathedral, Giralda and Alcázar, grand monuments sit alongside narrow lanes, tiled courtyards and traditional neighborhoods. The old streets of Santa Cruz are particularly atmospheric, with whitewashed buildings, flower-filled balconies and small plazas.
Seville’s historic character is also inseparable from its food and nightlife. Tapas bars occupy centuries-old streets, while orange trees add another layer of character to the city.
Visit during the evening and the old town becomes especially magical, with warm lights reflecting against historic façades.
