Sevilla

We travelled to two cities last week, Sevilla and Granada. We spent two nights in Sevilla, then moved on to Granada and stayed there for four nights. Sevilla was a bit large for us, and there wasn't all that much to see. Still some pretty sights though, and the largest church in the world!


Cathedral at night









Bells in the cathedral tower, which was originally the minaret of the mosque that stood on this site


The tower that we climbed up

Plaza de Espana, where the 1929 Fair of the Americas was supposed to be held. The Great Depression messed that up.


Torre del Oro, Tower of Gold. Used to store the gold that was brought back from the New World.
