Plaza de Espana

Plaza de España is a grand semicircular plaza in Seville's Maria Luisa Park, renowned for its stunning blend of Renaissance Revival and Moorish Revival architecture. Built for the 1929 Ibero-American Exposition, it features a large fountain, tiled alcoves representing Spanish provinces, and a canal crossed by picturesque bridges. Located just a 15-minute walk from Seville’s historic center, it is a favorite for its vibrant atmosphere, intricate tilework, and opportunities for boat rides.

Plaza de Espana is one of the most popular landmarks of the city of Seville because of its grandeur. Spreading over 50,000 square meter, the Plaza de Espana is surrounded by balconies constructed in the Renaissance Neo Moorish style. The building, semi circular in shape, curved around and follows the shape of a canal which runs through the square. There is a beautiful fountain which highlights the area while the canal is flowing peacefully nearby. There are four footbridges over the canal. The option of renting rowboats for the tourists is available, and they can explore the "Venice of Seville" through that. Another highlight of this area is the horse drawn carriage rides for the tourists through the park.
