Cultural attractions:
The giralda is the bell tower of the cathedral of seville and is one of the most famous monuments of the city.
It was built in the 12th century as a minaret for the city’s mosque during the Almohad period. After the Reconquista, it was transformed into a Christian bell tower in the 16th century. The renaissance upper part was added later.
The Giralda is about 104 meters high and one of the most interesting things is that there are no stairs but 34 ramps wide enough to allow you to climb on horseback.
The base still has the original Islamic design, with geometric decorations, while the top is in Renaissance style.
When you get to the top, you can enjoy an incredible panoramic view over Seville. It is perfect for taking spectacular photos.
La Giralda, together with the Cathedral and Alcázar is part of the Unesco. It is a symbol of Seville and represents the fusion of Islamic and Christian cultures.
La Setas is a modern structure located in the Plaza de la Encarnacion in Seville. Its innovative and futuristic design makes it an unmissable attraction.
Planned by the German architect jürgen mayer and completed in 2011, Las Setas is one of the largest wooden buildings in the world. It was built a part of an urban redevelopment project to revitalize the area.
The structure resembles a set of giant mushrooms built mainly of wood, with an intricate lattice that creates interesting shadows and a unique visual effect.
Downstairs, there is the antiquarium museum, where you can see archaeological remains discovered during the construction of the structure.
Under Las Setas there is also a food market where you can find fresh products and local specialties.
