Seville, Spain
The
Alcázar of Seville aka the "Reales Alcázares de
Sevilla" or "Royal Alcazars of Seville", is
a royal palace in Seville originally a Moorish fort. The palace is
renowned as one of the most beautiful in Spain, being the most
outstanding example of mudéjar architecture found on the Iberian
Peninsula.
The upper levels of the Alcázar are still used by the
royal family as the official Seville residence. It is the oldest
royal palace still in use in Europe and was registered in 1987 by
UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.
Quite the
complex, yes?
Group tour
member Rich later said (after seeing the ornate grandeur of these
rooms), “It is good to be king.”
Yes,
indeed.
