What to do a weekend in Seville

2023-02-24

Sevilla tiene un color especiaaal... Spring is one of the best times to visit the capital of Andalusia because it has a warm temperature, without the summer heat, and as the song says, it has a special colour.
In this post we bring you the best plans for a weekend in Seville because you already know, with Resa Inn you can have your stay next to the famous Mª Luisa Park and just a few minutes from the city centre, who can resist?

The Giralda and the Cathedral of Seville

Let's start with one of the most representative sites of the city: the Giralda and the Cathedral of Seville. You will be amazed by its façade as you slowly approach it. And we're not the only ones to say so: it was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1987, so we can assure you it's worth it!

Real Alcázar of Seville

The Real Alcázar of Seville is a group of palaces built at different stages of history and is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The original palace dates back to the Middle Ages and has different styles such as Islamic and Gothic, among others. It is a true work of art.
It is also considered the oldest royal palace in Europe because the Spanish royal family stays there during their stays in the city. You must buy your ticket in advance, and you can do so here.

Plaza de España

Just a 15-minute walk from Resa Inn in Seville, passing through Mª Luisa Park, you will come across the Plaza de España, one of the most renowned architectural complexes in the country.
Undoubtedly, one of the most emblematic places in the city (and one of our favourites!). Take time to stroll around, relax and enjoy the good weather and the atmosphere of Seville.

Torre de Oro

Our opinion is that you don't have to go inside, but on your visit to Seville, you must see the Torre de Oro or Golden Tower, even if only from the outside, and continue walking along the Guadalquivir River.
This structure, which was part of the walls that defended the city, has a height of 36 metres and was built in 1221, so it could not be missing from the list of things to do on a weekend in Seville.

Triana neighbourhood and the flamenco atmosphere

The Triana neighbourhood is one of the best known in the city and it is from here that great flamenco artists have emerged.
It is located on the other side of the Guadalquivir River, which is why it is said that this neighbourhood has its own identity, different from Seville's. Find inspiration in its streets!

Cabildo Square

In the Arenal neighbourhood, in the very centre of the city, you will find the Plaza de Cabildo, a square with white walls and frescoed arches that is the ideal place to marvel at Sevillian art. Spend a few minutes in this charming square.
You can also find a second-hand market on Sundays!

Get lost in its streets

Finally, but undoubtedly one of the most important sites in Seville, set aside an afternoon to stroll around the city's Old Town. The Santa Cruz district is one of its neighbourhoods and is everything you imagine when you think of the city. There is no better way to get to know Seville than getting lost in its streets!

Seville is one of those cities you always want to come back to. It has a charm that cannot be explained, it must be experienced.
