"A love affair with Sevilla" Sevilla by agarcia


Sevilla Travel Guide: 2,607 reviews and 5,401 photos

Contrary to the tradition, my love to Sevilla didn't arise at the first look, but at the first smell. It all happened on the very moment I put my feet on the downtown. There was no need for any useless word, or for a glimpse to the wonderful city that surrounded us. It was just a matter of closing my eyes and let the orange blossoms scent enrapture me to know that we where in a special place.

I saw many wonders and marvels in Sevilla, but the memory that I treasure, the kind of memory that makes me smile during a rainy day, are those orange blossoms in Spring.

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:The scent of the orange blossoms, the taste of a good vino dulce, the colors of the Triana district...
  • Cons:Santa Cruz overpriced bars

    Aaaah... me encanta Sevilla! I lived there for 2.5 months last spring and still feel that I've only seen 10% of the city. I'll return someday...
