Life in Sevilla:
Sevilla is a wonderful city in the south of Spain (Andalusia Part), near to the Mediterranean sea and the Atlantic Ocean. the architecture of the old building is so majestic. in the old part of the city you can feel that you are living in the past of it.

Citizens are really friendly in Sevilla and they like to have fun, during the night we met a lot of people in restaurants where they have a siesta – traditional break during the day - . During siesta all shops are close. People have meeting with their families and friends in restaurants, then after streets become full of people. Everyone is happy; people are more calm and relaxed. We can feel that citizens of this beautiful city enjoy life as much as they can. In Sevilla also we can meet a lot of tourists. Especially during spring and summer – Sevilla is full of people who want to visit it. Unfortunately, me and my friends, we couldn’t see all places in this city because we there just two days, so we choose just the most important places for us. For sure (with a little of luck) we will back to this amazing city in the future.
Foods and drinks:
There are a lot of restaurants and places where you can take a coffee. In restaurants you can try delicious dishes, which don’t look good, but the taste is amazing. But I don’t recommend to you try the meat. In Sevilla They also have delicious tapas, cheap and very good coffee and orange juice and of course, wine. People who like sweets can try a lot of different kind sweets, ice creams and traditional churros. Everything is very cheap, and people who work there in restaurants are really nice, friendly and always smiling. I should mention that it was really easy to find a restaurant opening during the night, but when we arrived to Sevilla at 7am, we were so hungry and we had a problem to find places where we could eat something. Restaurants start to open around 9 - 10:00 am.
Accommodation:
We spent 2 nights in Sevilla and we found a room in a hostel for 6 people. It was cheap (around 20 euro per person, per night). This hostel was really clean, with fully furnished kitchen.
Interesting places:
In Sevilla they have really good bus connection, but if you want see all places and amazing colourful streets, I recommend to you to walk between places which you want to see. I should mention that helpful for, you will be sightseeing Sevilla with map – as I mentioned, in this city are a lot of small streets, so it is easy to get lost. Also, if you don’t have a lot of time to visit this city, the best idea is to make a visiting plan. Before arriving you should check if you need to reserve tickets or not to enter into some places. But don’t worry, if you don’t want to spend a lot of money, in Sevilla you can see a lot of amazing places for free. Really nice is the fact that near parks (in Sevilla they have a lot of green places where you can rest), people were dancing Flamenco – traditional Spanish dance, women had amazing, traditional dresses. Sevilla look totally different during the night, so I recommend to you to go out for a walk during at night, you will love it.
