Go very early in the morning, just as the sun is rising. The qualilty of the light will make for fantastic photos, and there will be no one around to intrude on your pictures.

This plaza is another must see in Seville; great photo ops; beautiful mosaic tiling on the bridges, seats, lamp posts...! Due to camera failure, we went twice to this plaza. The first time was in the afternoon. It was very (very) hot, but the upside was that there were no tour groups. Also the mosaic benches are in sunlight which... More

Simply one of the best places in Sevilla as it's a paradise corner in the middle of the town with great architecture and style (all ceramic station for Spanish towns and canal is embracing the place). a MUST

Plaza de Espagne is slightly out of the way from main tourist areas and right next to a public park (Maria Louisa), so it is best to combine a visit to both these. It is a beautiful space full of intricate decoration that really takes your breath away, so it is best to see it for yourself. The sheer scale... More

This a rather different plaza, which in my opinion is clean, peaceful and just plain lovely. Well worth a visit. Enjoy it!

I honestly did not know about this place until we came upon it on our bikes. It is one of those sights that you will always remember the first time you saw it! I wish I would have taken more pictures here.

A must visit whenever in Seville. Wonderful atmosphere with lots of beautiful things to see. In hot weather it is best to go in the morning when there is plenty of shade.

A walk around the Plaza de Espana is well worth your time. The architecture is beautiful and our 40 minute visit didn't even do it full justice. It's definitely eye candy -and free, which is always an added bonus. They offer boat rides around -but it's so small it made me laugh -to pay to be taken around that little... More
