Things to do in Seville, no research required

Seville’s core is small enough to cover on foot, which makes the shortlist more useful than the map. Plaza de España pulls the biggest crowds by a distance, and Catedral de Sevilla next door is worth the climb up the Giralda for the rooftop view over the old town. Tablao Flamenco Las Setas is where to catch a proper performance if you only get one night for it, and it’s worth booking ahead. Parque de María Luisa is where to slow down after a day of walking. Arts and culture is the deepest category here, comfortably enough for a few days without repeating a stop.
