    "The most beautiful place is very similar to the Alhambra Palace. The queen's bathroom was too spiritual, and finally lost in various gardens, not as good as our garden. It's okay from a certain point of view, but it won't work in another direction. One impressive place is the corridor, climb up, overlook the garden, take pictures."

Remember to bring a passport or copy to check when you want to enter the venue. Be sure to take pictures of the scenery and buildings at the vent of the tower, which is much cooler than the small grid on the top of the tower."

    "My recent visit to Plaza España in Sevilla was an unforgettable experience, highlighting the architectural magnificence and cultural richness of this iconic Spanish landmark. Designed by Aníbal González for the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929, the plaza is a stunning example of Renaissance Revival architecture, with a unique blend of Moorish elements that pay homage to Spain's rich history.As I walked along the semi-circular brick building, I was captivated by the intricate ceramic tiles, known as azulejos, depicting the history and culture of each Spanish province. The craftsmanship and attention to detail in these artworks were astounding, offering a colorful mosaic of Spain's diverse regions. The bridges crossing the small canal, which reflects the beautiful façade, added to the romantic atmosphere of the plaza.The expansive central square, with its large fountain, was a vibrant gathering place for locals and tourists alike, echoing with the sounds of flamenco music and the sight of traditional dance performances. The grandeur of the Plaza España, set against the backdrop of Seville's clear blue skies, provided a picturesque setting that was both awe-inspiring and inviting.Exploring the Plaza España was not only a visual feast but also a deep dive into the cultural heart of Seville. It stood as a testament to the city's historical significance and its ongoing celebration of Andalusian culture and traditions. This visit left me with a profound appreciation for Spain's architectural beauty and its rich tapestry of history and art. visit it!"

    Highlights: The Giralda Tower is a landmark of Seville, and this 98-meter-high building can be seen no matter where in the city. The tower was built by the Islamic Amoad family at the end of the 12th century. It has a strong Islamic style. The spire is very small when looking up from the tower. In fact, it is a bronze statue of 4 meters high and weighing 1288 kilograms. It will turn back and forth, and the 28 large clocks on the top of the tower can still tell the time for the residents of Seville with beautiful tones. The 70-meter-high observation deck is the perfect place to take in the view of the city of Seville or to confirm the exact location of the attractions you are planning to visit. However, there are no steps in the tower, only a ramp that is said to have been used by the king on horseback in the past. There are also hundreds of ancient carriages outside the church for tourists to rent.
