Published on by Alonso gomez

In this article I will talk about Sevilla cheer, great city, in which we find magical places that surprise us at almost every step. Sevilla is an open air museum where spectacular monuments ranging from antiquity to the present day, fill the streets and gardens.

The city is crossed by a historic river in andalucia, the Guadalquivir, a river that has been linked to the history of Spain.

On the banks of the river Guadalquivir we find the curious hexagonal tower Torre del Oro dating back 850 years and was the last defense of the Alcazar or palace of Arab kings. King Fernando III using the Cantabrian sea took her and stole her chains, which can still be seen in the coat of Cantabrian. This building even today is very interesting because inside we find the Naval Museum. htt)

Note that Seville has an excellent hotel and accommodation facility such as the Murillo suites in the neighborhood of Santa Cruz in Seville or hotel murillo Seville. We can also highlight Lux Apartments in Seville, and the hotel Pasarela opposite the Plaza España in Sevillle

Another interesting monument is the Cathedral of Seville. Originally built as the largest mosque in the Almohads, on what remained of an Andalusian mosque which itself was built on a Visigoth church, in fact what remains Visigoths in Andalucía a font that was recycled is as ablution fountain by the Arabs and still is in the courtyard of the cathedral. With the advent of the Christian kings, became the largest Gothic cathedral in the world, as indeed has the guinness record and is one of the most visited monuments in Spain with thousands of visitors annually.

Heritage Exhibition of 1929, an era of prosperity that came to an end in the terrible crisis of 29 and in the civil wars that ravaged Spain ... but surprisingly these precious monuments were saved. The Plaza of Spain in Seville, Maria Luisa gardens and palaces where museums are Seville. these huge precincts showed a new friendship between Spain and the emerging American nations in this century. Truly one of the most beautiful cities in the world ... well is a bit overstated, but a city that was one of the most important in the world in the Muslim middle age, was the link with America for 300 years and in the last century has held two international exhibitions is due to stand out from most cities.

The city center is spectacular and in the center of which is the Giralda, the old minaret of the Islamic mosque was erected in 1184 and has the honor of being the tallest building in Europe until the arrival of the industrial revolution. Climb the tower is an experience because from it we can see the whole city of Seville like we're birds.
