Seville, Capital city in Andalusia, Spain

Seville extends along the banks of the Guadalquivir River, with the Cathedral, Giralda tower, and Alcazar palace forming its monumental center point.

The city transformed into a major commercial center after 1492, holding a monopoly on trade with Spanish colonies through the Casa de Contratacion until 1717.

The Santa Cruz district contains numerous squares, fountains, and whitewashed buildings where residents display geraniums and carnations on their window balconies.

The metropolitan transportation system includes a single metro line, multiple bus routes, and a tram network connecting major districts and tourist locations.

The Metropol Parasol structure in Plaza de la Encarnacion measures 150 meters long and 70 meters wide, creating shade across multiple levels.

Rooftop bars in Seville: panoramic terraces, cathedral views

Seville offers numerous rooftop bars that provide elevated vantage points over the old town. These establishments are primarily located on hotel rooftops and in converted historical buildings throughout the city center. Many sit within proximity to the Giralda and Seville Cathedral, allowing visitors to observe the Gothic architecture from an elevated position. The rooftop bars typically open in the late afternoon and remain operational past midnight. They serve cocktails, local wines, and Andalusian tapas. Some are situated in boutique hotels in the Santa Cruz neighborhood, while others occupy modern buildings along Avenida de la Constitución. The terraces offer views across the historic rooftops, the cathedral bell tower, and the Guadalquivir River in the distance.
