Seville, Spain What to See & Do in 2 Days, Seville, Spain
In mid December (2025) my husband and I travelled to the south of Spain to explore the Andalusia region of the country. We have been to Spain before, but away from childhood holidays at the beach and briefly visiting Barcelona and Madrid it was our first experience of a more authentic Spain.
The city is famed for its streets lined with orange trees and ceramic tiles and great food scene. We flew direct from Edinburgh with Ryanair.
For this portion of our trip we dedicated two nights to Seville, and in my opinion for the city itself two days was more than enough time to fully explore.
Our airbnb ground floor apartment was set in the heart of Seville, but there was very little noise from the street and I loved the interior courtyard in Mozarabic style. The airbnb was in the bustling Triana neighbourhood which was very close to the river and on every corner there was a place to eat and drink.
There was also a shared rooftop and Jacuzzi tub (we didn’t use it) if needed. It was a very pleasant stay and if you are looking for a wee city break then I can recommend this place.
In my opinion it was the number one thing to see in Seville, what's more is it is 100% free to explore. This semi-circular public square was built in 1929 and designed for the Ibero-American exhibition of that year - the exhibition that year was to show off Seville's place in the world for its crafts and industry. ......
