In Southern Spain, the beautiful capital city of Seville invites travelers to its alluring, centuries-old dance. This gem of the Andalusia region has a rich history — it was first established as Hispalis by the Romans, weathered the Spanish Civil War, and hosted both the Ibero-American Exposition (1929) and the Universal Exposition of Seville (1992).

Must-sees in Seville include the landmark palace Royal Alcázar of Seville, the Gothic, bell-towered Catedral de Sevilla, and Plaza de España, an architectural marvel with Moorish, Baroque and Renaissance influences. Meanwhile, Museo del Baile Flamenco is the place to learn about flamenco dancing culture.
