Landmarks in Seville

Had a thoroughly enjoyable day exploring these 2 iconic sites in Seville and the combo ticket gives a small discount. The Alcazar is a beautiful building and the Seville residence of the royal family. We also loved the gardens. The cathedral is huge and as with many churches in Spain has Muslim origins and many side chapels, one of which houses the tomb of Christopher Columbus

The Alcaraz of Seville is one of my favourite places to visit. It combines my passion of gardens and water. Magnificent old buildings and ornate tiles, wonderful look out areas. Carefully planned planting in the gardens that provide shade from the beating down sun. The terraced area provides a fantastic opportunity to view the gardens from a different perspective. It's one of the most beautiful places I've ever visited.

A beautiful palace with a magnificent garden 🌺, wonderfully furnished, a magnificent experience, absolutely recommendable 😉

The Cathedral iself is awesome, of course. That's why we are here. And in the event, the ticketing and entrance to it was just fine, as there was no queue to skip so 'skip-the-line' was unneceaasry'. Two hours later there was a HUGE queue, being carefully policed. See emails for my problem acessing tickets however. Your App is not easy and intuitive to use. The Audioguide was a complete washout, as it reqired a "Validation Code" to function and nowhere on the ticket nor your communications, app, or emails to me was there such a number. Obvious or not. Thus we had no other guidance during our visit than the heavily theological propaganda of the Catholic establishment.

The amount of oppulance is overwhelming. I visited 10 years age, and it is still staggering beyond my imagination. The architecture and craftsmanship today cannot compare to this (mathematical genius). Workers with minimal tools but devoted in great faith created one of the greatest cathedrals world over.
