At the heart of Triana this bar is at the top of my list. Great quality and service but go early (before 9:00) if you don’t want to queue. Recom: ‘rosada al limón con pimientitos’ & ‘bacalao dorado'.

Drinks & Nightlife

[FLAMENCO] (Non-organised Show). This is a local bar and the entertainment is spontaneous and different every night. Anselma, the owner of the bar is quite a character. Go after 23h (no entrance fee).

[COCKTAILS - 'EMBARCADERO'] My favourite spot in Triana. Keep your eyes open or you will miss the entrance door (very small). The view of the other side of Seville from the River’s bank is amazing.

Very central place with delicious cocktails for a reasonable price. There isn’t a wide variety but they serve classics (such as margarita, mojito or cosmopolitan) in a very original way.

Sightseeing

A defensive tower built in the 13th century, almost at the end of the Moslem period. Today is the home of the city naval museum. It has a good view but there are better (Giralda, Metropol Parasol).

Like going back in time. Maze of narrow, cultural streets. Wonderful area to get lost in for a couple of hours, to see the old cobblestone streets, gift and art shops. A lovely stroll.

A privately owned Moorish villa, with Roman/Greco sculptures and beautiful Moorish tiles and wall decorations. Extremely well presented and similar to the Alcazar in atmosphere but on a smaller scale.

A must visit. An amazing palace surrounded by gardens. The cost for renting a boat for 4 persons (duration about 30 minutes) was only 5 euro! You had the feeling that you live in a past era.

While the church itself is stunning, it's the treasury and details that will blow you away. The Madonna is used for the Easter parades and holds a special place in the hearts of the Seville people.
