Visible Spain—Livable Seville

Seville is the most livable historical city in Spain🇪🇸. It is not as lively as Madrid, but it has many attractions, such as the Royal Palace of Seville, Seville Cathedral, Plaza de España, Golden Tower, and Bullfighting. The performances, flamenco performances, etc. are all worth experiencing. The food 🥘 here is very delicious 😋, the hotel 🏨 is also more affordable, and the service staff is warm and friendly. Seville is the ancient capital and industrial, commercial and cultural center in southwestern Spain. It is now the capital of the Andalucia Autonomous Region and the Province of Seville. 🏙️🏙️It is small but it is the fourth largest city in Spain. It is the only city in Spain with an inland port. 🚢Seville was once an important port (also known as Port Barros in ancient times). On August 3, 1492, the Italian Christopher Columbus set out from Port Barros to lead an expedition on the orders of the Spanish kings. The fleet headed west and crossed the Atlantic. The Spanish fleet transported large quantities of gold and silver from the New World to various parts of Europe via Seville. ⛱️⛱️Seville Royal Palace Built in the 10th century AD, it combines various architectural styles such as Mudéjar, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque.
