It has Moorish origins, being the minaret for the former mosque.What’s unusual about the tower is that 34 ramps lead to the top instead of a stairway.This was so that Muezzin who led the call to prayer could ride his horse up the tower instead of walking.

    • Plaza de España: This colossal monument was built for the Ibero-American Exposition in 1929 and stands within the Maria Luisa Park.

This is an earth part of the city, credited for many of the things people associate with Sevillian culture, like painted ceramics and flamenco. The main way in is via the Isabel Bridge close to the bullfighting arena, here you can halt and see 250 years old bullfighting arena and moving in the said direction will make you arrive at the Plaza de Altozano, which has a much-photographed statue of a flamenco dancer, a “monument to the flamenco art”.

    • MUSEUM OF ARTS AND TRADITIONS: Also part of the Exposition is this surprisingly diverting museum covering Seville’s traditional industries, households and customs.Here you’ll see everyday items from throughout Seville’s history, including ceramics from the 16th-century and large displays of swords and knives forged in the city.One section leads you through the various workshops relating to Seville’s historic trades, such as tile-making, metalwork, lacework and barrel-making for the local sherry (fino).
    • MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS: Walking around the older parts of the city, the buildings that don’t look Moorish have a highly ornate baroque style.This is because the 17th and 18th centuries were a time of great wealth for Seville, which gave rise to a whole cultural movement. At the Museo de Bellas Artes you can see the painting and sculpture from the Sevillian School.Much of the work here is religious and comes from monasteries and convents around the city that were closed down in the 19th-century and brought here.The building is also fabulous, with a series of peaceful courtyards
