Located in the southern district of Spain in Andalusia, Seville was an important city during the standard of the Muslim Moors and then, when the New World was found, it took an immediate part in the business. With a population of barely 700,000 people, you might be surprised at the number of wonderful attractions to be found in Seville. In fact, there are also plenty of free activities in Seville. We list 9 here.
1. Plaza de España
No excursion to Seville should end without a visit to the Plaza de España. This square has become an image of the city, and the most amazing aspect is, it's free. The gigantic u-shaped structure has a natural Andalusian look. It consolidates a long history of neighborhood styles – baroque, renaissance and mudejar – into one exceptional creation. If you haven't been to Seville and seen the square, it may very well be because you've seen it on the big screen.
2. Triana neighborhood
Triana is one of only a modest number of neighborhoods on the east side of the stream. Be that as it may, it is Seville's generally bright and attractive barrio. The inhabitants are happy with the legacy of Triana and will usually distinguish themselves first as Trianeros and then as Sevillanos. Triana has a long history of ceramics, tile making and music. This is where flamenco has its most grounded roots in the city. As you explore this area, especially in the middle of the year, it is normal to hear the step of feet or flamenco guitar from the windows.
3. Spanish Inquisition Museum
In Triana, visit the free Museo Del Castillo San Jose. It was the main seat of the Spanish Inquisition and follows the cruelty and torment of Spain's dull past.
4. Maria Luisa Park
To say that Maria Luisa is just a leisure center would be an understatement. It looks more like a professional lake bed with springs surrounded by rich palm groves, orange trees and a wide variety of beautiful blossoms. There are even parakeets living in the recreation center, as do ducks and swans. The recreation center, in addition to a few different structures found within its lines, was built entirely for the 1929 Ibero-American World's Fair. Today, a significant number of them have been converted into galleries.
5. Metropol Parasol
The insane mathematician Metropol Parasol (formerly known as The Mushroom) is a strange development that floats across La Encarnación Square. Planned by a German planner and completed in 2011, it has since become one of Seville's most fascinating sights. Shockingly, most of the Metropol Parasol is made of wood and is considered the world's largest wooden structure. Viewing the Metropol Parasol from the square is perhaps the most mainstream free activity in Seville. You can also take a lift to the top for €3 and walk around a slope that has the absolute best perspectives on Seville.
6. General Archives of Indies (Archivo de Indias)
The General Archives of the Indies was implicitly 1572 and operated as a trader for all products and riches from the New World. It holds records of the most important conquerors and continues completely until the end of the 19th century. This structure contains a lot of important history and was therefore declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The amazing rooms look like something out of a Harry Potter movie. The unrestricted passages are secured with records stacked on the roof. The General Archives is strategically placed close to the Alcazar and the house of God and takes no undue effort to experience.
7. Antiquarium
Underground at the Metropol Parasol is a Roman paleo history site with buildings and a few mosaics. The remains were found when workers were digging to build a vehicle under the plaza. The vehicle on the left had to be moved! Although entrance to the Antiquarium costs money, you can enter for free if you have a ticket from the Alcazar. Everyone should visit the Palacio de Alcazar in Seville because it is so incredible. So try to go to the Antiquarium around the same time.
8. Basilica of the Macarena
This basilica is on the outskirts of Seville and from the outside it looks somewhat plain. In any case, go in and you'll be amazed by its flashy styling. This congregation has two of the main strict shackles used in the city's incredible Easter parades. Admission is free.
9. Stroll along the river
It is really pleasant to walk along the river between the Triana Bridge and the Golden Tower. This piece resembles a park and has been freed from vehicles. It is arguably the best place to take in the perspectives of the Triana area, with all its brilliant structures arranged in front of the still water. Try checking out the Torre del Oro (Tower of Gold), which is celebrated for having housed a significant portion of the New World's fortune. Go to the highest point and appreciate some incredible perspectives of Guadalquivir's waterway and the rest of the city.
