We will briefly explain the most outstanding points that we will visit throughout the walk.

We'll stop at the beautiful courtyards of the neighbourhood's alleys, we'll see the narrowest street in the city and we'll look out on Rosina's balcony to sing with Figaro the Barber of Seville. We will discover the old Seville aqueduct.

Calle Susona (Pass By)

We will immerse ourselves in the 14th and 15th centuries to learn about the vicissitudes of the Hebrew people, especially the pogrom and the definitive expulsion of the Jews by the Catholic Monarchs. We will know who the beautiful Susona was and what her legend is.

Plaza de Dona Elvira (Pass By)

The most bucolic and picturesque neighborhood of the city served many European artists as a stage to represent the plots of their novels and plays. We will enter the streets of this old Jewish quarter to live some of its passages and experience the so-called City of Opera by UNESCO.

Plaza del Triunfo (Pass By)

We will enjoy one of the best views of the city, surrounded by the Cathedral, the Giralda, the Real Alcázar and the Archivo de Indias, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

Universidad de Sevilla

The headquarters of the Seville University is located in the old Royal Tobacco Factory, where Mérimée was inspired to create 'Carmen'. The politics and administration of France were essential for the implantation of this type of manufactures, so widespread in Spain by the Bourbons. We will learn about aspects related to the trade and factories of the peninsula, as well as other literary details directly connected with renowned French authors.

Parque de Maria Luisa

We owe the wonderful park to a prestigious French garden architect, Forestier. Years later, the Ibero-American Exhibition was held here, thanks to which we can now enjoy the beauty of its old pavilions, such as the one in Spain, which gives its name to the current Plaza de España, an ideal setting to end to a very complete and exclusive tour of the city.
