  1. Okay.  You can look up all the obvious stuff.  Here's a really good site.  The photography is excellent which makes it even better!  sevilla5.com.

    Beyond the obvious, stuff, and what they list there...you need to start at the Plaza Nueva, walk around the Ayuntamiento, and head North up c/Sierpes...it's a really nice shopping street - no cars, at least for peeking in the windows, it's pretty touristy for the most part, but it's cool to look in the windows, or browse.  At the end of the street, there's the most wonderful sweet shop you'll likely ever find. La Campana.  Stop there and have some sweets and coffee for me.  Then, if the market is set up at the Plaza del Duque, go browsing and shopping there.  (to your left, in front of Corte Inglés).  If you are into it, that's the best department store in Spain...Their grocery section is really neat, so they say.  (I've never done it...didn't have the money to shop there when I was a student, and didn't have the need in subsequent trips).

    You may want to have lunch at El Rinconcillo, not terribly far to the East down that main drag (as suggested on that website) and then get dessert at the ice cream shop they recommend.  You might want to split this all up, too.  Also near there is the Palacio de las Dueñas, famous mostly for the fact that it's the home of the Duquesa de Alba, the richest woman in Spain.  It's a less-traveled part of town.

    If you're interested in unique perfumes, they have their own fragrance in Seville, called Agua de Sevilla.  I had a devil of a time rousing it online, but there's two shops in that Plaza Nueva, on the same side as c/Sierpes, where they sell it.  One is a perfume shop, and the other, a few shops to the left, is a boutique.  Don't remember the name, but it's on the corner of the next street.    

    buy ceramics directly from the factories iin Triana.

    Walk along the river bank from the Torre del Oro to the Triana bridge.  

    Go to a bullfight, in season.

    In the Parque María Luisa, feed the doves.  Seek out the frog fountain, and if you want to buy silly touristy things like fans, I picked up a nice, two-sided one in the Plaza de Esapaña (where they filmed the palace of Naboo for Star Wars, ep2) for a really good price.  The guy selling it to me told me his mother hand painted them.  (I don't believe it, though. unless his mother lives in a hovel in China, somewhere.)

    Tons of things to do, there.  I used to live there.  Much is on that website, including a couple of places that you won't find listed anyplace else.


  2. well i think you should do some looking up or something but that sounds fun.......visit some of the historic sites if there is any in that place im not sure never heard of it lol
