Parque de María Luisa Park

map Google map (h8am-10pm Sep-Jun, to midnight Jul & Aug; c#) The lungs of central Seville are the dreamy Parque de María Luisa, which is a delightful place to escape from the noise of the city, with duck ponds, snoozing sevillanos and paths snaking under the trees.

If you’d rather continue your cultural education than commune with the flowers, the park contains a couple of sites that’ll keep you smiling. Curving round Plaza de España, with its fountains and mini-canals, is the most grandiose of the buildings built for the 1929 Exposición Iberoamericana, a brick-and-tile confection featuring Seville tilework at its gaudiest, with a map and historical scene for each Spanish province. You can hire row boats to ply the canals from only €5.
