View from the Giralda
Classic view of Seville
When visiting Seville, or the monumental Gothic Cathedral of the Virgin Mary, do not forget to climb the main landmark of the city – the Giralda tower. The very ascent in the bar of people will seem endless to you. Surprisingly, the stairs will be waiting for you at the very end. Most of the ascent leads along a „sidewalk“ that rises smoothly. However, the view from the gallery is worth the effort.
View of the Real Alcazar
After quite a long climb to the top of the tower, a well-deserved view of the city awaits you. To the south you will see the fortified royal palace – Real Alcazar and the towers towering over Plaza de España. The monumental Puente del V Centenario bridge over the Guadalquivir river is completely visible on the horizon
View of the roof of the cathedral
To the southwest you can see the interesting roof of the cathedral with lots of small turrets.
West view
Looking west, you can see an extensive patio directly below you. In the distance you can see the bullring. However, the newly built 180-meter-high skyscraper – Cajasol Tower, which completely disturbed the panorama of the old town, acts as a fist to the eye,
View of the Plaza de Toros
A closer look shows how architecturally picturesque the bullfighting stadium is.
View of the old town
Looking north, you have the entire historic center of Seville with a number of churches and white houses in your palm.
East view
The view to the east is probably the least interesting – a new, prefabricated district of the city rises on the horizon.
