1. Plaza de España in Sevilla
The Plaza de España is one of the most popular squares in Seville, which I totally understand! The square is beautiful and surrounded by a crescent-shaped pavilion. At the foot of the building you’ll find 52 colourful mosaics. The Plaza de España is also known as ‘the Venice of Seville’. There is a 500-meter-long canal. If you want, you can rent a boat. You can cross the canal on foot via bridges and enter the central square. Of course you stop at the bridge to take a nice picture!

6. Metropol Parasol
Metropol Parasol is a large wooden construction that serves as decoration. There used to be a market on this spot, which was eventually demolished because an underground car park was to be built. The construction of the parking lot was eventually cancelled, because the remains of a Roman colony were found. In 2004, the Seville Urban Planning Agency organised an international competition to integrate this site into the everyday streetscape. The competition was won by J. Mayer H. Architects, a Berlin-based architectural firm that designed Metropol Parasol. A special object that is definitely worth a picture!
