🇪🇸My Favorite Place in Seville💙A must visit place💙
🇪🇸Splendid Seville🇪🇸
This is one of the most iconic and important spots in Plaza de España, the 48 benches which represents one of every province of Spain.
It’s in alphabetic order and starts on the left with ‘Alava’ and ends with ‘Zaragoza’ on the right.
In 1929 there were 49 provinces (now 52), but Sevilla is not represented, why do you think?
If we go back to the reason why every province is one bench, we can find the reason for it; is to get information about that province. On every single bench you can see:
💙A map of the province
💙One moment in history which was important for that province
💙Painted by a painter from that province
💙The Province’s coat of arms
But there is no bench to represent Sevilla, it’s because the constructors thought ‘why should we make one? You can just walk for 15 minutes towards the center and you will get all the information you need.’

🇪🇸Stunning structure in Seville🇪🇸A must Visit sight💙
🇪🇸Splendid Seville🇪🇸
The place you have to visit if you ever go to Sevilla, has to be Plaza de España! It’s one of the most incredible places in Spain.
This amazing place is not only stunning but also contains many visible secrets, that you will understand if you know a little bit of the history.
Plaza de España was created due to the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929. This was held to welcome the former colonies of Spain, which means most of South America and even Portugal and the United States were invited.
The square, as you can see, is shaped half-round, which stands for the welcome sign. They were basically welcoming the former colonies back to Spain.
This is one of the many secret elements of this amazing place that not many people know about.
Unfortunately, this exposition wasn’t the biggest success. This was all because traveling wasn’t that easy yet at that time. Besides that, they were happy to not be colonized anymore by the Spaniards.

Nice place
This plaza is easily located as it is very close to the marina and the ferry port with the tram track being within easy reach.
There are several monuments here with the most distinctive being the memorial to the 39 residents of the island who fought and died on Franco's side in the Civil War in the 1930s. Controversial or not it is hard to miss the memorial and with it's location on the seafront it makes a good meeting place and a good starting point when exploring the city.
The plaza is located very near the main shopping streets and there are several bars and restaurants when the sight seeing gets too much or you want a spell of people watching!

There is a moat between the building and the square. There is a fountain in the middle of the square, and the square is facing the Maria Luisa Park. There are 58 colorful porcelain niches on the walls of the red brick buildings, representing the historical scenes of 58 different regions of Spain. Many tourists take pictures in front of the niches. There are several arch bridges made of blue and yellow tiles on the moat, which are beautifully shaped and brightly colored. Visitors can take a boat trip in the moat, don't have a lot of fun. Alternatively, you can take a horse-drawn carriage and explore the square in a traditional way. It is said that this square is the most beautiful in the evening sun.

The entire square is gorgeous and presents a semi-circular brick building. Below the building is a leisure bench, each bench is made up of tiles of different colors and patterns. There is a river in the middle, with several small bridges leading to the fountain in the middle. The carriage is like a return to the Middle Ages. No loss is the most beautiful Plaza of Spain. The railings on the bridge and the buildings on both sides are exceptionally beautiful and colorful.

Chloe Yin.
Every city in Spain has a Plaza of Spain. This is not the most beautiful square in Spain, but the most beautiful square in Europe! Hahahaha.
Although it is the epitome of Moore's revival architecture, you can see different architectural styles in the square,
including Gothic style, Moorish style and silversmith style.
One of the global imperialist fathers, there is no reason.
Spain Square in the sunset is definitely the most beautiful time! ! ! ! !
Occasional woman dancing, Spain Flamingo is really beautiful!
Sevilla is also the birthplace of Flamingo, is it everyone will dance Flamingo!

A Spanish masterpiece
Built for the Ibero-American exposition in 1929 and compromising of two distinct styles that form part of Andalusian history (Baroque and Moorish) the Plaza de Espana is one of Spain’s most photographed site with a surprising twist round every corner. The attention to detail of the architecture for a building less than 100 years old is impressive and harks back to and older style #seville

✨For Movie Fanatics, visit this in Seville😍
🇪🇸Splendid Seville🇪🇸
So according to Aníbal González there was something he didn’t like on the square…
It is the fountain! González never created this and did not want it here.
Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on if you like it), Sevilla did want it here and eventually put it here even on the day he died. To please or impress his loved ones, Sevilla placed a statue of Aníbal, at the entrance of the square, but with his head turned away from the fountain…😂
✅Did you know that a couple of movies were shot here? Examples are Star Wars 2, Lawrence of Arabia, and The Dictator.

😍Beautiful Square in Seville💙🌟
🇪🇸Splendid Seville🇪🇸
On one of the 4 magnificent bridges of Plaza de España—yes even the four bridges contain secrets. The reason there are 4 bridges, is because every bridge represents one of the 4 old kingdoms of Spain – León, Castilla, Aragón, and Navarra.
The water body that goes under the bridges represents the river Guadalquivir, which flows through Sevilla. It symbolized the way forward to America.
People can actually row with a boat to have a cool experience here.
😂Had lots of snaps here coz the bridge itself is so pretty along with the views from all angles💕
An amazing place to have a roam and relax in, such a great time here indeed!

Seville, Spain
Seville Royal Alcázar
Seville Cathedral
Plaza de España
The Royal Alcázar has a Middle Eastern and Arabic style, exquisitely designed, but not as luxurious as the Royal Palace of Madrid.
Seville Cathedral is the third largest cathedral in the world, with a tall bell tower and a large church.
Plaza de España is the largest square in Spain. Although it was very hot, we took a horse carriage from the Royal Alcázar for 45 euros, waited at traffic lights, passed a roundabout, and seamlessly arrived at Plaza de España. At first, it didn't seem impressive, but once inside, it was stunning. The beauty of Plaza de España must be experienced.

Seville-Granada
Weather: Cloudy, 13-33 degrees.
We couldn't make it to the Spanish Square yesterday, but with the tour leader's coordination, we successfully checked in at the square this morning (Picture 1).
Enjoying the splendid Spanish sunshine, the temperature difference between morning and evening is huge, like two different seasons.
Today we left Seville and headed to Granada via Ronda, mostly driving on mountain roads.
Around noon, we arrived in Ronda for a visit.
Ronda, known as 'The City in the Sky' (Picture 2), is located in the hinterland of the Malaga province at an altitude of over 700 meters. This small town, born in the Roman Empire era and developed during the Arab invasion era, has its old town perched on a cliff with a hundred meters of height difference, offering a breathtaking and magnificent view (Picture 3).
The famous Puente Nuevo (also known as the New Bridge, Picture 4), rebuilt in the mid-18th century, spans a 98-meter-high gorge on both sides, with the Guadalevín River flowing towards Seville at the bottom of the valley. It is a vital thoroughfare between the old and new towns and one of Ronda's most iconic landmarks.
The Ronda bullring (Picture 5), with a diameter of 66 meters, is one of the oldest bullrings in Spain, built in 1785. Ronda is known as the birthplace of modern stand-up bullfighting, and it has seen two glorious bullfighting families, Romero and Ordóñez.
The town is peaceful and simple, as if it naturally grew out of the surrounding cliffs. Today is the weekend, and there are even more visitors here.
After lunch, we drove nearly a hundred kilometers and continued along the mountain roads, reaching an altitude of over a thousand meters, to the town of Mijas built on the hillside (Picture 6).
Mijas, an Arab-style tourist town, is known as 'The White Town', 'The Romantic Town', and one of 'Spain's Top Ten Beautiful Towns'. Walking on the clean streets, the buildings around are all white (Picture 7), with bright flowers and individual decorations, exuding a strong romantic atmosphere (Picture 8).
The town faces the Mediterranean Sea and looks across to Melilla in North Africa (Picture 9). With a suitable climate, bright sunshine, and well-equipped commercial facilities, it has become a tourist and leisure vacation destination.
In the evening, we arrived in Granada to stay, and tomorrow we will visit a famous attraction here before heading to Toledo.

Seville | The 'three-piece set' is worth visiting!!!
🌈Seville Cathedral
🎫Ticket: Adult ticket 12 euros (online)
This Gothic cathedral is one of the largest Gothic buildings in Spain and also one of the five largest cathedrals in the world. I may not have religious beliefs🙁, so I can only go to see their architecture, paintings, etc., and I don't know the profound meaning behind each painting, but when you really walk into this cathedral and look carefully🧐, it can no longer be described as exquisite😍, it really can make people feel the shock of faith. You must go when you come to Seville!
‼️On the right side of the entrance is a souvenir shop, where there are very popular orange fridge magnets, cheaper than outside😎! Be sure to buy tickets online in advance, not only is it 1 euro cheaper than offline, but you also don't have to queue up!
🌈Seville Royal Palace
🎫Ticket: Adult ticket 14.5 euros
The architecture and murals of the royal palace are slightly inferior to the cathedral, but the garden is very beautiful. When we went there, we just encountered peacocks displaying their feathers, but the sun in Seville is really too fierce🌞, it's very uncomfortable to walk under the sun for a while, everyone must do good sun protection!
‼️Be sure to buy tickets online in advance, otherwise you may not be able to buy them while sunbathing!
🌈Spanish Square
🎫Ticket: Free!
We arrived at around 5:30 p.m., and it could even be later, at this time the sun is so strong that people can't open their eyes, the fountains, statues, and surrounding buildings on the square are all filled with a strong Spanish atmosphere. There will also be street performers dancing flamenco💃, you don't need to buy tickets to watch, just sit on the steps and watch as long as you want! You can also row boats in the Spanish Square, very chill!

A quintessential example of Neo-Renaissance architecture
The Plaza de España in Seville, Spain, was initiated in 1928 and constructed for the Ibero-American Exposition World's Fair in 1929. It was designed by architect Aníbal González and stands as a typical representative of the Neo-Renaissance architectural style in Spanish buildings. The plaza is semi-circular in shape, with tall buildings surrounding its edge. At the center of the plaza is a large fountain, and there are two towers each 74 meters high at the north and south, symbolizing the Catholic Monarchs Ferdinand and Isabella. A moat encircles the plaza, where boating is available for entertainment, and there are four bridges over the river. The exterior of the buildings is decorated with various styles of murals inlaid with ceramic tiles, representing the folk customs of the original 58 provinces of Spain.

Spain|The most beautiful Spanish square
Located in Seville, Seville is a good place, where you will feel comfortable walking around.
The Spanish square in Seville can be said to be the most beautiful Spanish square, especially in the afterglow of the sunset, the entire building reflects the golden light, it is said that special luminous materials have been added to the brick wall. The canal in front of the square is also dyed into a golden river, and you can take a boat tour if you have time.
JASE WEBER
Seville's Plaza de España
Roaming to Seville, the first stop is Plaza de España. The square is not large, with buildings surrounding it on three sides, and a huge fountain in the center is very spectacular. The river around the square is clear, and there are many tourists rowing on the river. It can be seen that many people are probably rowing for the first time. The clumsy movements and the willful boats add a lot of joy to everyone.
There are also horse-drawn carriages shuttling in the square, and the sound of horse hooves is endless.
Tourists are in twos and threes, sitting or walking, taking pictures to commemorate, and they are very content.

Spanish Square
The Plaza de España was built in 1928 for the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929, and is a typical representative of the new Renaissance architecture style in Spanish architecture. The Plaza de España is semi-circular and is the most easily recognizable building in Seville, Spain, and is a miniature of Spanish Moorish Renaissance architecture.

The continuous buildings surround the edge of the square, and can be reached through many beautiful bridges over the moat.
On the walls of the square, there are many niches, each representing a different province of Spain, describing the myriad of styles of each city in Spain.

Spain, a country full of romance.
Spain is located on the southwestern Iberian Peninsula in Europe, facing Africa across the Strait of Gibraltar to the south and the Mediterranean Sea to the east. Follow my footsteps and let's go.
Seville is a city with a rich historical heritage, which embodies the passion, freedom, charm and various styles of Spain. Let's take a closer look at this charming city of Seville. The Seville Cathedral is the most famous building in Seville and one of the "Three Great Cathedrals of the World" along with St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican and St. Paul's Cathedral in London. The site of the cathedral was originally a mosque, which was demolished by Christian rulers in the late 14th century and took about a hundred years to rebuild this grand cathedral. It was listed as a World Heritage Site in 1987, and the remains of the navigator Columbus are buried in the cathedral's crypt.
[Plaza de España + Maria Luisa Park]Located in the tranquil and fresh atmosphere of Maria Luisa Park in the southern part of the city, the crescent-shaped classical architecture stands elegantly among the greenery, making it the most popular recreational spot for Seville citizens. The scene of the square, suitable for both quiet and lively activities, can be fully appreciated under the cover of yellow carriage wheels, which is intoxicating.
[Flamenco Dance]When visiting the birthplace of Flamenco in Seville, how can one miss this wonderful performance.
The birthplace of bullfighting art - Ronda, the old city of Ronda stands on a towering cliff, giving people a thrilling sense of grandeur. The Nuiebo Bridge spans the canyon and connects the old and new city streets in a very natural and appropriate way. This small city is peaceful and simple, and most of the attractions are in the old city. Ronda's fame is due to the prosperity of bullfighting culture and the American literary giant Hemingway. In his bullfighting-themed novel "Death in the Afternoon", he wrote: "If you want to go to Spain for your honeymoon or elope with someone, Ronda is the most suitable place, and the entire city is a romantic scenery..." It can be seen that this small town built on a cliff has such unique charm. You can stroll on the new bridge, see the bullring of the birthplace of bullfighting, and enjoy the view of the cliff on the Taholin shady walkway. Ronda is a place that needs to be savored slowly. It is also necessary to enjoy the most famous cuisine in the Andalusia region of southern Spain: [Special Oxtail Meal].
White Mountain City [Mihass] (about 1 hour visit): This lovely little town has very pleasing houses: white walls with red tiles, the whole town unfolds along the gently sloping foothills of the mountain, and its unique architectural style attracts photography enthusiasts from all over the world. Mihass's pure white and flawless romantic scenery also attracts people to come here for honeymoon trips, hoping that love can also return to the most flawless beauty because of the clean atmosphere here.
Picasso's hometown - Malaga, visit the "Malaga Beach", where you can take a leisurely stroll on the sandy beach of the sunny coast and listen to the sound of the sea.
The city of pomegranates, Granada, is a famous historical site that blends Muslim, Jewish, and Christian styles, making it a cultural and tourist hotspot in Spain. It was the political and cultural center of the Moorish kingdom established by Muslim Moors on the Iberian Peninsula, and is the pride of Andalusia, Spain, and a holy place in the hearts of Muslims. The Alhambra Palace, whose name comes from Arabic, meaning "Red Castle," is a representative of Arab-style palace courtyards, located on the Nevada Mountains outside Granada. The Alhambra Palace, a perfect combination of Islamic architecture and gardening, was selected by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site as early as 1984. People who come to Granada are mostly there for the Alhambra Palace, listening to the guitar piece "Alhambra Palace," standing on the mountain and looking out over the entire city of Granada and the snow-capped Nevada Mountains behind them, the beauty of which makes people reluctant to leave.
Andalusia's another gem - Cordoba, the ancient Roman bridge and the Great Mosque of Cordoba are still in use today. The ancient Roman bridge, which has 16 arches, was originally built in the 1st century and underwent various degrees of renovation from the 13th to the 19th century. The Hundred Flower Lane is a quiet alley near the mosque in the Jewish quarter, which is a typical and peaceful alley in Cordoba. Unlike other areas in Andalusia, Cordoba is a city full of flowers, and everyone in the small town knows, loves, and grows flowers. This can be seen in the Hundred Flower Lane, where flowers hang on the walls, flower pots sit on the windowsills, and the fragrance of flowers permeates the narrow and winding alleyways.
Don Quixote's windmill village - Consuegra: 11 large and small windmills stand on the undulating hills, guarding a medieval castle, making people feel like they are in the era of medieval knight culture; these windmills are all made of stones and painted white, each round windmill base looks like a turret, appearing very sturdy; the windmills are about ten meters high, with huge wooden blades installed on the stone bases, against the backdrop of blue sky and white clouds, they look very spectacular.
World Heritage Site - Toledo. It is an ancient city that still retains the medieval style and is known as the "City of Three Cultures". From the prosperous ancient Roman streets, Jewish churches, Arab city gates, to the Catholic Gothic-style Goethe Church, and the Alcazar that witnessed the baptism of the Spanish Civil War, Toledo shows great charm with its well-preserved splendid historical and cultural heritage. UNESCO has listed it as a world heritage site. Toledo Cathedral is one of the largest Catholic cathedrals in the world and the pinnacle of Gothic art, as well as the best witness to history. The Puente de San Martin is a medieval bridge located on the Tagus River, built in the 13th century and named after the bishop of the diocese, San Martin, with Mudéjar architectural style. It is recommended to cross the bridge and take a panoramic photo of the beautiful Toledo with the Tagus River as the background.
Football fans celebrate + incredible Madrid ~~~~ In this mysterious city that is immersed in the day and lost at night, you can see magnificent palaces, squares, and monasteries, and art lovers can also wander in various museums. The Madrid Royal Palace and the Spanish Art Palace - [Prado Museum *] are known as the three major museums in the world along with the Louvre in Paris and the British Museum in London, and have the most precious art works in Spain and even in Europe. The most famous [Madrid Royal Palace *] is the official residence of the Spanish king. Each room is like a work of art, with velvet wall decorations and exquisite ceiling murals. It also collects famous works by the painter Goya. [Puerta del Sol Square + Mayor Square] Puerta del Sol Square is semi-circular, meaning the rising sun. There is a "zero point" (Kilometro Cero) sign here. All the national highway milestones in Spain start from here and are calculated outward, and the door numbers of Madrid are also based on this point. Mayor Square, near Puerta del Sol Square, was built during the Habsburg dynasty. The main building of the main square is the House of the Bakery (Casa de la Panaderia), which serves as a municipal and cultural function, and the exterior is covered with murals.
Segovia is the most spectacular World Heritage city in Spain. In "Notes on Traveling in Spain", Linda said, "Seeing the ancient Roman aqueduct, the money spent on air tickets from the United States to Spain is worth it." In addition to its magnificent architecture, this small city is also famous for its delicious roasted suckling pig. The aqueduct was built in ancient Roman times and is still well-preserved. It is 813 meters long, divided into two levels, with 148 arches, and 30.25 meters above the ground, with extraordinary momentum. The Alcazar Castle is located at the western end of Segovia and is the prototype of the castle in the Disney animation "Sleeping Beauty". The Michelin-recommended restaurant, Candido Restaurant, offers a special roasted suckling pig meal. This restaurant has a history of more than 200 years since its opening in 1786.
Very few cities are known as "someone's city", but Barcelona is known as Gaudi's city. Gaudi's architecture makes this city so unique and shining, and this city is also the place where he devoted his life and rested his soul. The Sagrada Familia is Gaudi's lifelong masterpiece, started in 1884 and still under construction after a century. The 170-meter-high tower, colorful mosaic decorations, spiral staircase, and vivid statues on the wall make the huge building look very light. Park Guell is where Gaudi transferred his amazing talent from architecture to garden planning. As soon as you enter the main gate of the park, you can see the lizard sculpture that often appears in travel guides. Going up the steps, you will discover a colorful surrealistic paradise, and Gaudi's former residence is also located here. Casa Mila is Gaudi's last private residence design, with three wavy walls, twisted iron bars and iron plates forming the balcony railings, and large windows that are very eye-catching. The six floors, top floor, and rooftop terrace of Casa Mila are open to the public, and the rooftop chimney is very special. From the balcony, you can also overlook some streets in the city center and see the Sagrada Familia in the distance. Casa Batllo is the blue telephone house transformed by Gaudi, and its design inspiration comes from the Catalan folk story of Saint George slaying the dragon to save the princess.
The romantic trip to Spain is coming to an end.

When traveling, we often think about which city we would like to settle in, well.... Sevilla would be one of them! Everyone's so friendly and the atmosphere of the city is really cool.

The most prestigious Plaza de Espaa
many cities in Spain have the Plaza of Spain, but it is the most famous in Spain's Plaza de Espana. The light in the morning is less than the afterglow of the setting sun, but it also gives the square building a mysterious sense of being half-covered. Here to remind everyone, be careful on the chemical attack of the pigeons on the promenade. The square is surrounded by continuous red brick buildings, with a large fountain in the center and many beautiful alcove on the walls, each of which represents the history of different provinces in Spain. In the square, you can also take a sightseeing tour, a boat ride, and an artist show. It is very lively.

###How to take a retro palace style photo in Plaza de Espaa#
I remember that when I first went to Plaza de Espaa this year, it was in a wonderful evening
because Didn't do any homework, so when I arrived, it really scared me, oh my god, it was too beautiful.
This square is the most beautiful and beautiful square I have ever seen, no one.
So I plan to go again the next day
2 month, the weather is a bit cold, so I put a small suit on the outside, I didnt expect this British style retro style, just like the old Spanish The squares complement each other.
Shooting point recommendation:
1. Just at the entrance of the square, facing the pool, find a passerby to help you shoot, choose the angle, the phone is raised a little higher, so you can shoot Vista, sky and pool.
2. If you want to shoot your own face, you can use the selfie stick (a good helper for a person to travel)
3. Go inside the square and shoot in front of the square retro bridge, because the background is The retro architecture will be especially delicious.
Clothing recommendation:
1. If it is summer, you can wear a dress with a solid color skirt, red and white are very good (unfortunately this time there is no belt)
2. Choose one Retro court style skirt (such as this I will also be very good)
haha, because the background is beautiful, so it is easy to get a good photo

Every city in Spain has a Plaza of Spain, the Plaza de Espaa in Seville is Spain's largest Plaza of Spain, the most popular building in Seville, and the most popular building in the magnificent square, bathed in Spain. The sun, listening to the sound of the fountain ringing the carriage ringing, looking at the lazy ducks in the far moat, high cold and gentle, you want, Seville's Plaza de Espaa can give you. In order to run the Ibero-American exhibition in 1929, Seville built the current Plaza of Spain on the edge of the Maria Luisa Park and hosted a Spanish industrial and technical exhibition. Nowadays, Guangben Binzhi seems to be able to present a historical atmosphere in the square.

Compared to our modern shopping malls and apartments today, Seville's Plaza de Espaa is arguably the pinnacle of architectural history. The city spends a lot of time bathing in the sun all year round. Just like the scenery, the atmosphere here also produces a completely different mood with the sun. Seville, Spain.

There are many Spanish squares in Spain. In my opinion, this one is called a veritable one. Anyone who comes to Seville and even comes to Spain will never miss it. The squares at night are beautiful and quiet. The ancient Roman-style cloisters, fountains, bridges, and inlaid porcelain fences are also chic. Under the semi-circular arches, 58 inlaid colored porcelain murals depict the cities of Spain. All kinds of styles. Photography and painting at any angle are classical and novel.
