Personal comments
My favorite spot was right around the block that i lived on, called Aldemeda de Herculis. You can't place the center of town without going into the Cadedral de Seville, its just breathe taking! To shop, Calle Tetuan has by far the best shops. Triana is the place to be during the month on April fo Feria, don't miss out!!
