After the cathedral, we had a couple of hours to walk around Seville.
These are the highlights of that (plus one from between the Plaza de Espana and the Alcazar).
That one is this:



Not quite sure why she's outside Seville's bull ring, but there she is.

Him, I know why he's there. It is a statue of Curro Romero (more information here).
Of course, there is also a statue of She, The Woman, Carmen.

(If I talk about Carmen and don't share something from Carmen 1983, please assume I have been kidnapped.)
And since we're outside the bullring, please also have this
We also looked round the outside of the Torre del Oro (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torre_del_Oro)
The Torre del Oro is called that because it is made of mortar, lime and pressed hay, and it projects a golden shine onto the river.
It's is a three level tower. The first level is 12-sided and dates from 1220, under the Almohads.
The second layer, also 12 sided, is from the 14th century, under Peter of Castille.
The third circular layer is a replacement for the previous one which was destroyed during the 1755 Lisbon earthquake.


With that, we said farewell to Seville.
