The first time I was in Seville, a coupleof years ago, I was not impressed at all. I changed my mind this time. FIrst thing we did was to visit the Setas de Sevilla which is apparently the largest wood structure in Europe. It gave us a nice view of the town despite the grey but nevertheless warm weather.

Under the wooden structure some old remains were discovered and are now exposed to the public.

Next stop Cordoba

Finding a place to eat is not a problem in Sevilla, we had many choices within a couple of blocks from our appartment. The sais appartment located at Rivero 8 was very convenient, modern (maybe a bit too modern) but to be recommended nevertheless.

We tried to book tickets for the Real Alcazar but the queues were impossible. Furthermore tables were being prepared for a very large banquet for that evening.

We did however managed to get on line tickets for the cathedral for later that day. We had some time to spare so lunch was in order as well as a discovery walk around town.

The Cathedral

I did not know that Christopher Columbus was burried in there.
