Europcar Spain Car Hire

Travel Tips For Seville, Spain

Seville is one of the prettiest towns in all of Spain, filled with plazas and history. One of the highlights of Seville, Alcazar, an ancient Islamic palace, is well worth the pricey entrance fee. To offset that expense, there are a number of free sights to see, including the other must, the Seville Cathedral with its free entrance on Sundays.

Both stations in Seville are pretty central. Plaza de Armas is about three blocks from the Triana Bridge and Reyes Catolicos, and the Prado de San Sebastian station is close to the university and across the street from the Jardines Murillo.

Of course, if you want to get to your destination easily and comfortably, the best mode of transportation is your own car. Even tourists can get their own car for use at Seville by simply contacting the car hire companies with offices at the airport. You can consult international car hire companies such as Avis, Hertz, and Europcar for your rental needs. Local providers such as AurigaCrown and National Atesa are available as well.

If you love sherry or horses or flamenco then plan a trip to Jerez where you can tour round the sherry bodegas sampling some of their wares, watch an equestrian ballet at the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art or see some flamenco in the place where it originated. The daily equestrian show features choreography adapted from the training exercises of classical dressage, with traditional Spanish music and costumes dating back to the 18th century.

Seville in Spain is a beautiful place to visit no matter which part of the world you come from. The capital of Andalusia is sure to win your heart and charm you with its quaint streets, rich decor and amazing architecture. If you are looking for a culturally rich place to visit, Seville can easily meet your demands.

For many travelers, Granada is the best city in Spain. The prime attraction is the Alhambra, a combination of fortress and palace built and used by the Moorish rulers who controlled Spain. The Alhambra simply has to be seen to be believed. The structure is in excellent shape and is detailed with intricate Moorish architecture and style. The internal structure is one of the most beautiful in the world. In addition to the palace, Granada gives off the air of a “real” Spanish city with cobblestone streets, bullfighting arenas and winding streets. Granada is a good place to just get out and walk.

For example, there is a story about Giralda there goes something like this. This cathedral was used by the Moors many years ago for religious reasons as well as an observatory. During the Christian conquest of the city, the Moors almost wanted to destroy it. However, they were stopped at the very last minute by an order issued by King Alfonso X – “If so much as a stone is missing from the Giralda, everyone would be put to death.” Hence, the building was saved.

The fairground enclosure is a replica of Seville and it is established in the Remedios neighbourhood. The streets have names of famous bullfighters: Joselito El Gallo, Curro Romero and Ricardo Torres “Bombita”. In addition, they put up lots of marquees or little tents decorated with rainbow lanterns and the Town hall rewards the most beautiful one.
