🏛️ Top Attractions
Best things to do in Seville
Real Alcázar
A masterpiece of Mudéjar architecture and UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Royal Alcazar is Europe's oldest royal palace still in use. Built in the 14th century with intricate carved walls, it showcases a remarkable fusion of Moorish and Christian architectural styles. The seven-hectare gardens feature reflecting pools, exotic flora, and free-roaming peacocks. Famous as Dorne's palace in Game of Thrones. Book tickets well in advance as only 750 visitors are allowed simultaneously.
Seville Cathedral & La Giralda
The largest Gothic cathedral in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built on top of a 12th-century mosque, it retains Islamic elements including the courtyard and the Giralda minaret, now a bell tower. Inside you'll find the tomb of Christopher Columbus, stunning main altarpiece, and treasures in the Chapter House. Climb the Giralda's 34 ramps (not stairs) for panoramic city views - manageable even for those with mobility issues.
Plaza de España
A stunning semicircular plaza built for the 1929 Ibero-American Exposition, featuring Renaissance Revival and Moorish architectural styles. The curving building features 48 ceramic alcoves representing Spanish provinces with beautiful hand-painted tiles. A canal runs through the plaza where you can rent rowboats. Featured in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones. Free to visit and equally beautiful at sunset or during the day. Beware of pickpockets in this popular tourist area.
Metropol Parasol (Las Setas)
The world's largest wooden structure, this futuristic mushroom-shaped landmark offers panoramic views of the city from its rooftop walkway. Designed by German architect Jürgen Mayer, it contains a market, restaurant, and the Antiquarium museum showcasing Roman and Moorish ruins beneath. The contrast between this modern structure and historic Seville is striking. Best visited at sunset when the wood glows golden.
Parque de María Luisa
Seville's most famous park, a lush green oasis featuring fountains, ponds, pavilions, and historic buildings including the Plaza de España at its edge. Originally the gardens of the San Telmo Palace, it was donated to the city in 1893. Perfect for jogging, cycling, or renting a rowboat. Home to the Archaeological Museum and Museum of Popular Arts. A peaceful escape from summer heat with plenty of shaded areas.
Mercado de Triana
A vibrant covered market in the Triana neighborhood, built on the site of the former Castle of San Jorge (Inquisition headquarters). Features fresh produce, seafood, meats, and local delicacies. The market includes tapas bars where you can enjoy freshly prepared food with locals. Downstairs hosts archaeological remains of the castle. Perfect for experiencing authentic Sevillian food culture away from tourist restaurants.
Casa de Pilatos
A stunning 16th-century Andalusian palace housing the world's largest collection of azulejos (ceramic tiles). Blends Italian Renaissance and Spanish Mudéjar styles with beautiful patios, gardens, and Roman antiquities. Less crowded than the Alcázar but equally impressive. Named after Pontius Pilate's house in Jerusalem as it was built after the first Marquis returned from a pilgrimage. An underrated gem perfect for architecture and history enthusiasts.
Museo del Baile Flamenco
The city's premier flamenco museum, founded by legendary dancer Cristina Hoyos. Interactive exhibits explain the history, passion, and artistry of flamenco through videos, costumes, and displays.

💬 What Nomads Say
Real reviews from digital nomads
"Seville quickly became my favorite city in Spain for remote work. I stayed in San Lorenzo/Feria and had 100Mbps WiFi in my Airbnb - perfect for Zoom calls. The cost of living is incredible: my modern apartment cost €650/month, tapas are €3 each, and a nice dinner out runs about €15. The city is very safe and walkable. I'd jog along the river in the evenings and grab beers at rooftop terraces. The architecture is absolutely stunning - I never got tired of walking through the old town. Only downside: it gets VERY hot in summer (I was there in June and couldn't imagine July/August). Perfect for spring and fall."
"Spent two months in Seville as a solo female digital nomad and felt completely safe the entire time. The city has a wonderful rhythm - mornings for work in cafes or coworking spaces, long lunches with tapas, siesta, then evenings exploring. Arcadia Coworking was my go-to spot with great WiFi and community. The flamenco scene is authentic and moving. Main challenges: English is limited so basic Spanish helps a lot, and the siesta culture means many places close 2-5pm which took adjustment. The late dinner times (9-10pm) are actually great once you embrace them. Would recommend October-November for perfect weather."
"Seville is beautiful but has some practical challenges for nomads. The summer heat is brutal - I made the mistake of coming in July and couldn't work without AC, which many apartments lack. The coworking scene is smaller than Barcelona or Valencia, with fewer English-speaking communities. Internet in older buildings can be unreliable. Spanish bureaucracy is frustrating if you need anything official done. That said, it's very affordable, the food is amazing, and the cultural experiences (Alcázar, flamenco shows) are world-class. Best as a 2-4 week stay in spring/fall rather than a long-term base. The airport connections are limited so expect to connect through Madrid for most flights."
