We found our parking place a couple of miles from Seville\u2019s old town.  The parking spot is a dedicated motorhome parking area. No real facilities but very convenient for seeing the city\u2019s sights. It is next to the city\u2019s river (Rio Guadalquivir) and docks so the scenery is not as good as some we have seen! We were surprised to see ocean going ships in the docks and river but have since learned the river is navigable to Cadiz on the Atlantic coast. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We cycled to the old town and through a couple of beautiful parks. In the middle of one of the larger parks we found the Plaza de Espa\u00f1a. An amazing building constructed in 1929 for the EXPO.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"620\" height=\"465\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/apethtravels.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_0711.jpg?resize=620%2C465\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-402\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/apethtravels.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_0711.jpg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/apethtravels.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_0711.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/apethtravels.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_0711.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><figcaption>Part of the enormous building at the Plaza de Espa\u00f1a <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/apethtravels.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_0712.jpg?resize=600%2C800\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-403\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/apethtravels.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_0712.jpg?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/apethtravels.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_0712.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Bridge over the moat at the Plaza de Espa\u00f1a .<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/apethtravels.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_0731.jpg?resize=600%2C800\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-408\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/apethtravels.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_0731.jpg?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/apethtravels.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_0731.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>One of the views from the Seville parking areas\u2026reminds me of my mate Derek\u2026<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seville 8 March 2022 It rained quite hard during the journey from Ronda to Seville.
