Seville with kids, realistically
Plaza de Espana's rowing boats on the canal cost a few euros for around thirty-five minutes and work at any age. The Alcazar gardens have peacocks and a hedge maze. Heat is the real constraint, since July and August afternoons routinely pass forty degrees, so plan mornings and evenings only. Santa Cruz's cobbled alleys are narrow for prams and the tram along Constitucion helps.
Seville after dark
Nothing starts early. Dinner at ten is normal and bars fill after midnight, particularly along Calle Betis in Triana with the river and the cathedral opposite. Alameda de Hercules is the younger alternative square. Flamenco divides between tourist tablaos and the penas where locals go, with Casa de la Memoria booking small honest shows. Summer heat pushes everything outdoors and later still.
What's actually worth your time in Seville
The Real Alcazar at €15.50 is the essential ticket, its slots sell out days ahead in spring, and the same fee covers the Antiquarium and the Triana ceramics museum. The Cathedral's Giralda is climbed by ramp rather than stairs, built for a man on horseback. Plaza de Espana costs nothing and is the best free hour here. Metropol Parasol's walkway is optional.
Seville's museums, and which one to pick
The Museo de Bellas Artes, housed in a former convent, holds the Murillo and Zurbaran rooms and admits EU citizens free, so carry the passport. It closes Mondays. Casa de Pilatos mixes Mudejar tilework with Roman statuary and charges separately for the upper floor. The Archivo de Indias keeps the paperwork of the Spanish Americas and is free to enter.
What to eat in Seville
Tapas are ordered standing at the bar and settled at the end, at places like Bodega Santa Cruz or El Rinconcillo, which has been pouring since 1670. Look for espinacas con garbanzos, spinach with chickpeas, and pescaito frito. Salmorejo is thicker than gazpacho and topped with egg and ham. Triana across the river charges less than Santa Cruz for identical plates.
