There is much to see on a Seville city break. A good place to start your exploration of Seville is down by the river. Take a stroll along the banks of the Rio Guadalquivir and experience the city away from the throng of cars and people. Head north into town from the river and you will hit the beautiful Maria Luisa Park, built for the 1929 Ibero-American fair, as was the adjacent Plaza de Espana. No city break to Seville would be complete without seeing the grand university buildings, formerly the tobacco factory where Carmen was employed. Beyond the university lie the gardens of the fabulous Alcazar. The origins of this fortress palace go back to the eighth century. All this city break sightseeing is sure to leave you hungry. Order the local tapas and you will be in for a feast of gazpacho, tortilla, ham, olives, shrimps, salt cod, peppery cheeses and even soup. There are tapas bars to be found all over Seville but in particular in Barrio Santa Cruz and Plaza Alfalfa. The oldest dates back to 1385!
