WHAT TO VISIT FOR FREE ON MONDAYS IN SEVILLE

Seville is an ideal destination for art and history lovers. A majestic city where the splendor of its different eras is evident everywhere you look. There is a long list of monuments and sites filled with legends about historical events or important figures. Visigoths, Romans and Arabs settled in this enclave. Numerous civilizations have occupied the territories that today comprise the historic center of the city. Híspalis or Isbilya are some of the names that were given to it in different eras. That is why it is inevitable to visit this place without letting yourself be carried away by the history it entails. I am going to make it very easy for you so that you do not miss anything.
