Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to visit the museums or the park there. But the plaza alone was worth already

One of the attractions not to be missed in Seville - sheer magnificence at its wonderful best. If you do not go anywhere else you must visit this and Alcazar.

This place is beautiful! It is in a gorgeous park (lovely to ride a bike in) and you can even get a horse & cart ride in here. The plaza has ceramic tiles on all the fencing and is really pretty.

Plaza de Espana is a surprise when you first see it. Much bigger than expected, a huge semi-circle of a building with a large paved square in front to sit, admire and take photos. On the front walls of the building there is a mural with seats, all in ceramic, each 'piece' is dedicated to a city in Spain with... More

Great attraction to visit. Parking nearby is a problem!!! Built in the 1920's. Grand architecture. Beautiful gardens attached for a shady walk.

Free of charge monument, well worth a visit. It is pedestrianised so visit on your own or your guide on a walking tour will give you some history on the plaza

This is a real monument in every sense of the word, designed to impress. The ornamental lake and park setting add to the attraction

I was expecting to find a square with trees and a few statues but this was truely a wonderful surprise. Beautiful semi circular building with tiled representations of all the provinces of Spain which are really interesting to explore. The canal around it and fountains just add to spectacular affect. Surrounded by tranquil gardens to wander around in. That this... More

Saw this both by night and day- well worth the two visits. Stunning architecture dating from the Exhibition of 1929 though it took, apparently, over 10 years to build. A must see in Seville. The marching bands are something else and are there nearly every day in the season.
