Attractions and Activities near Plaza de Armas

• Catedral de Sevilla: One of Spain’s opulent Roman Catholic cathedrals, Catedral de Sevilla was built in the 15th century to become the world’s greatest church. The Spanish took Seville from the Almohad dynasty in the mid-13th century and built the cathedral at the site of the Great Mosque. 
  When the cathedral was finally completed in 1506, it surpassed Constantinople’s Hagia Sophia as the world’s largest church. The enormous structure has a total area of 124,00 square feet, and its ceiling is nearly 140 feet high. Today, it still clings to its title as the world’s largest cathedral and was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. 
  The grandeur of the church immediately stands out the moment you reach the Door of Assumption and study its detailed carvings. 80 chapels are inside the cathedral, and the Great Chapel features a lavish altarpiece decorated in gold. 
  The Renaissance-era royal tombs are the burial sites of prominent Spanish figures like Fernando III of Castile and Alfonso X of Castile. Christopher Columbus and his second son Ferdinand are also buried inside the elaborate cathedral. 
• La Giralda: Roughly a 15-minute walk from Plaza de Armas, La Giralda is the 342-ft bell tower that sits beside the Catedral de Sevilla. The tower dates back to the Middle Ages when the city was under Moorish rule, and it functioned as the minaret of Seville’s Great Mosque. The tower was completed in 1198 and closely resembled other prominent minarets of the Almohad dynasty. Four walls surrounded its base, and spacious ramps gave lots of people access to the tower’s interior. The exterior facades are noted for their arched-design that enable light to enter the structure. 
  After an earthquake severely damaged the structure in 1356, Baroque and Gothic elements were added to rebuild the tower. Today, visitors can climb the ramps to the top and marvel at the detailed craftsmanship. It will require some fitness to walk up the 30+ floors, but you’ll have access to 360° views of Seville. 
• Royal Alcázar of Seville: This magnificent palace houses the royal family whenever visiting Seville, and it has a remarkable history spanning over 1,000 years. The structure was built in the 10th century during the reign of Abd ar-Rahman III, the self-proclaimed Caliph of the Caliphate of Córdoba. Future additions were made to the complex, and it would soon become the home of Almohad rulers. 
  Christians eventually seized control of the residence during the 13th century, and the complex was transformed into a Mudéjar Palace. The following centuries would see Gothic, Romanesque, Baroque, and Renaissance styles incorporated into the palace. 
  Walk through the courtyard to admire the lavish gardens that brilliantly use water, and don’t miss its ornate tiles. Make sure to book your ticket in advance since lines can sometimes be unbearably long.
