About Sevilla, Spain
Capital of Andalusia, Sevilla, was one of the last footholds of the Moorish empire that ruled the Iberian Peninsula. It is home to the ingenious barber of Seville and the tempestuous Carmen. The great Renaissance painters Velázquez and Murillo were born here, and Ferdinand and Isabel ruled Spain from the royal apartments in the Alcazar Palace. Though the city preserves its past, modern Sevilla is the commercial hub of Andalusia. For a city of fewer than 800,000, Sevilla offers amazing cultural activities, from flamenco to classical, pop, and jazz concerts.
