A city that will never cease to surprise you

Sevilla, Seville.
Seville is cinematic
When walking through Seville, many people can get to experience fantastic sensations, almost unreal. Seeing the Plaza de España for the first time is like crossing the big screen (more than one traveler has thought), an impression that also continues in the Parque de María Luisa as you explore its unique corners, its traffic circles and fabled gardens.
