Seville is the capital of the Spanish region of Andalusia. The city has a long and very interesting history influenced by Romans, Muslims, and Christians. The buildings in this remarkable city reflect this history, and days can be spent wandering the maze of narrow streets. The Seville Self-Guided City Walk will guide you through these streets and to the top sites of this amazing city.

Must-see sites include three UNESCO World Heritage sites – The Real Alcazar of Seville, Seville Cathedral, and the Archives of the Indies.  Also, be sure to visit the Plaza de Espana, and take in a flamenco show while you are here.

Walk Distance 5.5km/3.4 miles mostly flat. Seville can get very hot in summer, so break up the walk into several smaller strolls.
