Seville

The special thing about Seville are the Moorish influences that can still be seen in many places in the city. The Royal Palace Alcázar Real de Sevilla is a perfect example of this.  Next to the delicious tapas, the southern Spanish city is characterised by Flamenco dance, song and music.

Because of the Mediterranean climate it is hot in the summer months. Plan your visit preferably not in the month of July or August to avoid the worst heat, because there is no beach and sea to cool down!
