Mediterranean maritime climate

Hot summers and mild winters, Europe's largest historic centre and the birthplace of the spirited Spanish flamenco dance. But above all else, Seville is a vibrant city where life never passes by fleetingly, but is lived to the fullest.

Places to visit in Seville

Seville is the capital of the Spanish region of Andalusia. It's a city with an illustrious past: Seville had one of the most important ports in the world in colonial times, and European trade with America was in Seville's hands for centuries. It is therefore not surprising that Seville was selected for the mausoleum of Columbus, Spain's most famous explorer and discoverer of America. Anyone visiting the city cannot miss the Giralda, which towers over Seville and stands at 104.5 metres high. It is the bell tower of the world-famous Cathedral of Seville, the largest Gothic church building in the world(!). Yet this is not said to be the most impressive building in the city, as the Alcázar – the Royal Palace – is also a humbling and calming experience for all visitors.

Discover Seville

But the overwhelming variety of cultural treasures is not what makes Seville so special. It is the love of life of the Sevillian people. You can see it in their eyes, in their animated way of speaking, and how they celebrate each day. That passion for life won't be experienced anywhere else. Seville is a must. Immerse yourself in the rhythm of the city, dance the flamenco and then settle down at one of the many cosy bars for some of the best tapas you'll ever taste. A Sevillian would put it as follows: ‘Quien no ha visto Sevilla, no ha visto maravilla’, loosely translated as: ‘Who hasn’t seen Seville, hasn’t seen wonder'
