#100 Ways to Travel Spanish architecture has always been bold and avant-garde. In addition to the well-known genius #Gaudí Antoni Goudi, there is also a stunning wooden building #Metropol Parasol in #Sevilla in southern Andalucia. The exterior looks like a giant mushroom parasol. It was designed by German designer Jürgen Hermann Mayer over a period of six years. It is made up of six wooden structures shaped like giant mushrooms. It is very ultra-modern in style, and the lattice-like texture of the parasol also provides shade for the hot Seville. Metropol Parasol is the largest wooden building in the world, about 26 meters high, with an area of ​​about 150×70 meters, four floors above ground and one floor underground. Don’t think it’s just an art installation. Metropol Parasol is a combination of a museum, a vegetable market, a viewing platform, a restaurant and bar, and a performance venue, so you can watch performances, explore Roman ruins, and overlook the city while shopping. Tickets for the Archaeological Museum and Observation Deck must be purchased at B1. After visiting the Roman and Moorish cultural relics in the museum, take the elevator to the observation deck and walk in the open-air wooden corridor for a 360-degree view of the city, which is even more beautiful at night when the lights are on. The central market and restaurants and bars are free to enter. #西葡自由旅行 #Spain #Sevilla #Metropolparasol #sevilla #span

#EuropeanTravel #SevilleTravel #Seville 🇪🇦Seville is a city in southwestern Spain, and is the center of art, culture, and finance in the Andalusian region. It is located on a plain where the Guadalquivir River flows, and is said to be the fourth largest city in Spain, after Madrid, Barcelona, ​​and Valencia! ▶️The 2-day, 1-night trip to Seville was a really special experience. On the first day, I arrived in the evening and enjoyed tapas and the local atmosphere. On the second day, I visited Plaza de España, the reason I wanted to come to Seville so much, twice in the morning and afternoon, and I felt it to my heart's content! The time I spent walking and enjoying food in between was also great. I enjoyed the Metropol Parasol, the Golden Tower, and Seville Cathedral from the outside without going inside, and it was a city where I could feel so many charms in a short period of time!

#celebrateit One of the two coffee places I enjoyed the most in my 2 week trip in Spain. It’s not just full-bodied, at the same time it managed to keep an interesting amount of acidity, which really is what makes a cup of coffee great. And trust me, it’s also the cheapest in Seville. I just don’t know how this place decides to price itself, but I’m genuinely touched that the owner has the passion to do good coffee while keeping it affordable to everyone. The only fallback for this place is it has only two standing seats because it’s meant to be a grab-and-go. But what makes it up is the great view of Setas. It’s a famous attraction in Seville. To me the view down there standing outside this cafe is better than going up to the observatory deck. 📍Virgin coffee C. Regina, 1, Casco Antiguo, 41003 Sevilla, Spain (right next to the famous attraction Setas) 💰Average Price per Person: (try to zoom in the first pic for price menu)

#celebrateit 🕰️Business Hours: Monday to Sunday from 09:30 to 24:30, but final access at 23.45 p.m. 💰Average Price per Person: 16€, but it includes access to Mirador 360º, Feeling Sevilla, night access to enjoy Aurora and a free audio guide. It’s worth remark that the entrance fee offers double entry within 48 hours, depending on availability and capacity. We may revisit the place if the designated slot turned out to be a bad weather day, or simply for day/night view. Quite a cool T&C I’ve seen from viewing platform. If you found the admission a bit too pricey, staying at the ground is pretty good enough to enjoy the curvy architecture.

Have you ever heard of Seville? 🇪🇸 It is the capital of Andalusia, Spain, and the fourth largest city in Spain! It can also be written as Seville or Sebirya. Have you heard of the barber of Seville? Seville is still unknown to Japanese people, but it is sure to become very popular from here! ! Tourism has suddenly become more popular since I heard that it was ranked number one in the 2022 European city rankings. ✨I'll be honest, this is the city where I lived. In Asia, it is very popular with Chinese and Koreans, and it is becoming a city that is easy for Asians to visit. Seville is the home of flamenco. There are many small shops where you can see flamenco shows. But there are many other attractions in this city that you should know about! There are many world-class spots 🎵 The size of the city, which you can walk around, is also perfect for sightseeing 🚶 ①Plaza Espana (Spain Square) 🏰🐴 It is a beautiful circular square decorated with decorations. It has been used for filming Star Wars, music festivals, and functions as a place for all kinds of art. Seville has many buildings that combine Islamic and European architecture. The combination of beautifully patterned tiles on a European-style building is a symbol of this. The tiles on the walls are said to depict important historical events of each state. In fact, it was built for the 1992 World Expo, so it is not a historic building. But you will be missing out if you don't see this beauty. The reason to go now is the price. It's free now, but there is talk of charging an admission fee soon due to the increase in tourists! Now is your chance! ② Setas (Metropol Parasol) 🍄🟫🌅 The largest wooden building in the world. Locals call it setas, which means mushrooms. The sunset you see from the top is more beautiful than you would expect, and it's worth going even for 15€. I recommend making an online reservation in advance, but it's always very crowded these days. I heard that you can go up multiple times a day with one ticket, but I think it depends on the mood of the attendant. Be careful. In fact, you can go up for free at the hotel opposite and see a similar sunset view. ③Cathedral & Giralda Tower⛪️🕌 The cathedral is the third largest in the world, and part of the foundation that was used as a Muslim mosque remains, making it a cathedral with a sense of history. Don't forget to climb the Giralda Tower. It's a great spot to get a panoramic view of the city of Seville. You just have to climb the slope all the way to the top of the tower. Historically, it was made into a slope instead of stairs so that horses could climb it. Even if reservations are sold out online, you can often get in if you line up. It also includes a ticket to the Treasury, which is about a 15-minute walk from the cathedral. If you have time left, go and see it. ④Old Town - Santa Cruz District🏘️💃 Seville's old town is the second largest in Europe. The narrow streets lined with old-fashioned houses and small shops make it feel like you're in a storybook. There are many restaurants, so you won't have any trouble finding a place to eat. This area is also home to many flamenco shows at night. ⑤ Triana Bridge and Triana District🌉🏞️ Seville also has nature. If you go west of the city, you will come across the Guadalquivir River and cross a beautifully decorated bridge to enter the Triana district. This area, where many artists were born, is beautiful with its historical buildings and a laid-back atmosphere. It's wonderful to spend an afternoon sunbathing by the river. There are still many more places I would like to introduce, but I'll stop here! And finally, if you want to go, now is the time to go! Semana Santa (Holy Week) in March and the spring festival of the Feria, one of Spain's three major festivals, are the tourist high seasons and the city is overflowing with people in April. In the summer, it is so hot that even locals run away from the city. Before it gets crowded, before you get found, before everything has to be charged an entrance fee! Please visit Seville!! #Fashionable places overseas #Europe travel #Sightseeing #0 yen travel

# Sign up for hotel trial sleepers in December Seville (Seville), the capital of the Andalucia autonomous region in southern Spain, is an ancient city full of charm. This is not only the birthplace of flamenco, but also the background of the famous operas "Carmen" and "The Marriage of Figaro". Wandering on the streets of this city is like traveling through time and space, feeling the strong historical atmosphere and leisurely pace of life. First acquaintance with Xavier Our trip to Westver begins on the banks of the Guadalquivir River. The river flows through the city, bringing vitality to this dry and hot inland city. Walk along the river bank and enjoy the scenery on both sides. From time to time, you can see sightseeing boats sailing on the river. The first thing that catches your eye is the Torre del Oro. This twelve-sided tower was built in the 13th century and was once an important fortification that guarded the city. Today, it has become one of Seaver's landmark buildings and is also the home of the Maritime Museum. Next, we came to the Catedral de Sevilla. This Gothic building is the third largest cathedral in the world and the largest Gothic church in the world. The bell tower of the church, La Giralda, was originally the minaret of the mosque and was later converted into the bell tower of the Christian church. It is a model of the integration of Moorish culture and Christian culture. Climb up the Giralda Tower and overlook the entire city of West Verde. The scenery is breathtaking. From the scenic platform at the top of the tower, you can enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view of the city, including the Gothic spire of the cathedral, the golden dome of the Royal Castle, and the modern building Seville Metropol Parasol in the distance. In the afternoon, we visited the Real Alcázar de Sevilla. The castle was first built in the 10th century and has been expanded and repaired over the centuries, integrating Islamic, Gothic, Renaissance and other architectural styles. Strolling through the castle's gardens and admiring the exquisite fountains and flowers will make you feel like you're in a scene from Game of Thrones (in fact, it was one of the filming locations for the show). In the evening, we enjoyed authentic Spanish paella and tapas at a small restaurant in Barrio Santa Cruz. This area was once a Jewish settlement, but now it has become a must-visit attraction for tourists. The narrow streets, colorful buildings, and orange trees everywhere create a beautiful picture.

It is considered one of the most original attractions in Seville. The giant structure was built in 2011 according to the design of the German architect Jurgen Mayer. Its dimensions are impressive: the width and length are 150 by 70 meters, and the height reaches 26 meters. Due to its unusual appearance, the Metropol Parasol is also called the Seville Mushrooms. They house a traditional market, restaurants with local cuisine, performance halls and an archaeological museum. You can also take the elevator to the roof terraces, which offer panoramic views of the city. #europetrip

🇪🇸Splendid Seville🇪🇸 We went to “Las setas" known as The Mushrooms, it is the largest wooden structure in the world. Opened in 2011, the work of German architect Jürgen Mayer is 26 metres high. The structure is made up of six large parasols in the shape of mushrooms, and it affords fantastic views of Seville from the walkway/viewing point. The Metropol Parasol’s neutral tone was to help harmonize the stark contrast of the ultra-modern structure with the medieval surroundings of Seville. Stairways and storefronts sit below the wooden parasols, which form the largest wooden structure in the world. The innovative structure is made from bonded timber with a polyurethane coating. The actual site was originally slated to become a parking garage, but after excavations revealed archeological findings, the city of Seville decided to make the site a museum and community center. Metropol Parasol now houses said museum, a farmers market, an elevated plaza, and a restaurant, most of which are open-air. The elevated rooftop promenades located on top of the parasols, offer visitors amazing views of the city.

There is something about Seville..whether it's the beautiful weather, the strolls by the river, those gorgeous dinner spots, incredible tapas or the flamenco. There is something about Seville, something that adds a bit of romance to the city. One of the best stops during my Andalusia trip. I spent 2 nights in Seville. I could have easily done more. Perhaps the more is for next time. I was excited to visit the Alcazar. You might find it familiar as it was a shooting location for Game of thrones. But the place has always been popular. The cathedral of Sevilla, the largest gothic cathedral in the world also happens to be the resting place of the great Christopher Columbus. Next was plaza de Espania, a personal favourite and I feel it's the most beautiful in Spain. Other than that there is the park of maria Lucia just across the street, the duenas palace and then the urban structure of mushroom, las setas de Sevilla. It is beautiful and apparently the world's largest wooden structure. In terms of food, you are looking forward to the best tapas ever. #myhiddengems #seville #spain #summerdestinations #europe #solotrip #romantic #tapas #andalusia
