The scenic area is quite large and can be visited in 3 hours. I did not go to the Nazaries Palace, but I preferred the Charles V Palace. The parking lot cost 5.5 euros for two hours and then left.
The tickets were sold out on the first day. I didn't expect the Alhambra to be so popular. I later bought tickets for the second day through Ctrip. I walked around a bit. It's quite big and the routes are a bit messy, but overall it's a good experience. I may not have the chance to come to Granada in the future. I feel a little regretful if I don't go this time.

The area is calm enough to explore with friends, family or solo. Enough space so you aren’t on top of other people. Cute shops and restaurants close by the area, next door to the cathedral.
The Royal Palace of Sevilla is the oldest royal palace in Europe and was listed as a World Cultural Heritage in 1987. It was originally a Moorish castle built in the Middle Ages, and later integrated Islamic, Christian and Gothic styles to reflect the Andalusian architectural style. It was once the filming location for the Dorne family's royal home in "Game of Thrones".

I chose the Cathedral of Seville over the Royal Palace of Seville.
First, the Columbus coffin: Columbus's coffin is housed within the cathedral. The sarcophagus, adorned with statues of knights from the Four Ancient Kingdoms carrying the coffin, is a symbol of Spain's Golden Age of Exploration.
The most notable part of Seville Cathedral, constructed with large amounts of gold, is the main altar's sculptures depicting the life of Christ, depicting various stages of Christ's life.
Seville Cathedral is one of the five largest cathedrals in the world, third in size after St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican and Milan Cathedral in Italy. It is also the world's largest Gothic cathedral.
The story is particularly fascinating.
Seville Cathedral (Catedral de Santa María de la Sede) is the third largest cathedral in the world⚖️ and one of the largest Gothic religious buildings in Europe. Its predecessor was a 12th-century mosque, which was rebuilt to combine the essence of Islamic and Christian art. The iconic building **La Giralda** retains Moorish geometric carvings. Climbing to the top, you can overlook the panoramic view of Seville. The slope inside the tower was originally designed to facilitate horseback riding.

The performers are pretty good. If you don't have a chance to watch it in Madrid, you can arrange one in Seville. It's like adding a tourist attraction and appreciating the local dance. Don't do this. While you schedule yourself too full, you can also relax a little by watching the show.
Feel the charm of Spanish art and book a private room for the experience! The dancing is beautiful, the movements are powerful, the expressions are rich, and the food is good. I like it😍
Although it is not luxurious or complicated, I feel the enthusiasm and atmosphere, and I feel relaxed and happy during the trip💋I went there in December 2019 before the epidemic, and it is also a memory to comment now!

The Plaza de la Bulletin in Seville was founded in 1749 and is the oldest existing bullring in Spain. The ancient bullring, now the exterior wall is renovated, the top of the building is equipped with a golden orange arch group, the exterior is mainly white wall, forming a unique visual effect - eye-catching, atmospheric, very recognizable.
It depends on the individual..! Some people think it's cruel.. Some people think it's exciting.. I just want to experience it..
I didn't expect so many people, the whole place was full. I felt that 99.9% of them were locals, because they brought their own seat cushions like brief cases. There were almost no Chinese tourists. The older men all wore navy blue linen suits, with pocket squares or 🌹, 🎩. It was very ceremonial. The huge venue would be silent at the critical moment, and people would be hush if they spoke.. At the exciting moment, everyone would cheer in unison.. (I don't know how exciting it would be to watch football live).. At the end of an exciting game, everyone would wave white handkerchiefs (tissues). When the famous bullfighters finished their rounds and thanked the bulls, everyone threw down 🎩 and flowers. It is said that some ladies threw down 👙. Before entering the venue, many fans were waiting in the passageway where the bullfighters entered to welcome them. For 3 hours, the air was filled with the smell of cigars.
From 7 to 10 o'clock, 6 bulls were killed in a row.
Bulls are usually purebred African bulls weighing 400-500 kilograms, and they must be strictly screened to ensure their aggressiveness and viewing value.
Each bull takes about 20-30 minutes, and the more time passes, the more exciting it is. Each bull includes steps such as teasing, spear piercing, flower dart piercing, and formal fighting and killing. Each link is completed by different roles (such as bullfighters, spearmen, and dart gunners). 2 times, the spear pierces the back, 3 times, 6 darts continue to pierce the back, then the bullfighter teases the bull to consume its energy, you can clearly see the bull's rapid breathing and exhaustion, some urinary incontinence, some spitting blood, and finally the bullfighter pierces the spinal cord with a sword, if it misses, it will be booed.
Usually the bull pierced with the spinal cord will fall to the ground directly, and some will slowly kneel down. The bullfighter pierces the spinal cord with a sword again, and the bull lies horizontally, and then an assistant uses a dagger to stab the spine several times
It's quite cruel.. What did the bull do to provoke anyone.. But whether it is radical or obedient, it will eventually be killed.

This was a good one hour show. Arrive early about half an hour to get the best seats. The theatre is located in a charming street.
We should go to this theater. There are several places to watch flamenco performances in Seville. The performance lasted for an hour and a half, and I felt that it was more exciting than the flamenco performance at the Palau de la Música Catalana in Barcelona.

The experience here is really shocking and worth a visit! However, it is recommended to make a plan in advance to make the trip smoother. If you choose to go there in summer, it is best to finish the tour before 2 pm, otherwise the afternoon heat will be too hot to bear~
Morocco was closed due to strong winds in the Strait of Gibraltar. We didn't go to Cordoba. There was nothing amazing here, but it was a good place to check in. The Cordoba Mosque is unique in architecture, and the red and white arc is impressive. We stayed in Seville for 4 days and took 3 one-day tours.

There are many Plazas of Spain, of which the Plaza de España is the most beautiful. Sevilla, Plaza de España, Spain's most beautiful square, ancient Roman arch corridor and Arab architectural style blend together, good weather, easy to press are very beautiful, Hin is good to shoot.
We went there on May 4th. We were lucky enough to catch the annual engangches competition. The horses were so well groomed. The owner was also a real rich guy. I don't know if there were any other events. This place itself is beautiful.

Although the ticket is much more expensive than the official sale, it is worth it to buy the next day's ticket. When the weather is good, it is absolutely extraordinary to go to the Alhambra. It is recommended to reserve enough time to visit slowly.
The Nasrid Palace, which was first built in the 13th century, has been renovated and expanded by successive kings and sultans, becoming more and more perfect and reaching the pinnacle of Islamic architectural art.
Several courtyards of different shapes, represented by the Myrtle Courtyard and the Lion Courtyard, are hidden among the towering city walls, green trees and flowers. The carefully designed layout, exquisite architecture, and intricate carvings... are mysterious and dreamy, with a changing scene, and luxury and wealth are all there.

Near Picasso's birthplace. Rich in content, involving Picasso's paintings and sculptures in various stages, it is worth seeing. Reminder to buy tickets online one day in advance, you need to queue up to buy on-site. The visit takes about 2-3 hours.
It's worth a stroll.
Feel Picasso's explorations in different periods and his mental journey from academicism to abstraction.
There are many Picasso museums, and this one in his hometown of Malaga feels intimate. In the center of the old city. Parking is difficult, park in the parking building across the river and walk for ten minutes.
