If I was looking for some inspiration on my recent travels I certainly found it in Seville. It has everything I love and in the Spring the weather is perfect for me. It ‘s a friendly city with great food (it’s where Tapas originally came from) and is of a modest size compared to some Spanish cities but it has has culture in abundance. There’s still so much I didn’t see I’ll have to go there again.

First we visited the cathedral which breathtaking and I even managed to climb to the top of the tower to take in the magnificent views.

One of the views from the top of the tower. Just to prove I made it up there!
It has a beautiful palace, the Alcazar Real with its moorish architecture, decorative and sometimes quirky tiles and wonderful gardens. The tiles have to be a post all of their own but here’s some images of the architecture, the gardens and the underground pool which was used during the summer months to keep cool.
