Seville, Spain walking tour
You will find in Seville all that a traveler can hope for: Pedestrian shopping streets and quiet alleys; flower-scented gardens, an ancient palace and immense cathedral, hundreds of historic sites; three thousand years of conflict and peace; thrilling evening entertainment; excellent museums; great food and drink, especially the tapas; and rewarding nearby attractions -- the list goes on until you run out of time.
Seville’s city center is divided in various parts: there’s Macarena in the north; El Arenal on the west side; the central shopping zone; and most exciting of all—Santa Cruz with the narrow pedestrian streets and lots of shopping and eating.
There are other districts or barrio in the city after all Seville is the fourth-largest city in Spain with the metropolitan population of about 1.5 million, but for the visitor that central area is your main destination.
Seville’s historic center is quite large—about a mile wide by 1.5 miles long, riddled with countless little alleys and important landmarks. You can discover it on foot if you are selective and seek out the particular attractions that most appeal to your interests. We suggest here an organized plan for doing just that, but it’s sometimes better to push the plan aside and just wander: certain neighborhoods, especially Santa Cruz, are perfect for the aimless stroll, and the downtown pedestrian zone of Seville is a shopper’s paradise.
So let's take a little walking tour in Santa Cruz.
An excellent central location to start your first walking tour is between the Cathedral and Alcazar palace in the Plaza del Triunfo. Many of the town’s main attractions can be easily reached from this central space, making it convenient for you to pick a direction, any direction, and go -- but with such an abundance of choices it can be a little tricky to decide where best to begin. Which way to turn depends on your priorities and the time of day, but no matter; there will be time in the next few days to fit everything in.
Walking is always the best way to see a place and especially when it's so pedestrian-friendly like Seville with so many lanes that are dedicated just to the pedestrian and other narrow lanes where you have very little traffic. You always want to use that walker's rule of thumb, that when you get to an intersection, look around and see which way looks most interesting. That's if you have the time to wander. And it can lead you from one place to the next with great satisfaction. On the other hand if you're in a hurry, you want to follow a little bit more of a specific plan and stick to it and perhaps follow a map.
Next we are going to take you through downtown pointing out some of the major plazas and the lovely pedestrian lanes. Starting out at Plaza Nueva, the most popular place in town.
This central area with the plaza and the streets leading to it is really the heart and the focal point of the city. Notice the broad street that is for pedestrians, bicycles, no cars allowed, and the tram.
Seville has a recently installed modern tram system that really is a great way to move people around. This neighborhood along Constitution Avenue has been entirely transformed by the tram service because now there are no cars going by, you don't have those exhaust fumes and noise, and so there's a lot more room for people throughout. You’ve got the sidewalk restaurants, you’ve got people walking, strolling along, lounging, people-watching, and the street is a major one that connects the cathedral with the City Hall Square, and then beyond, right into the pedestrian shopping zone where we will be taking you next.
Plaza Nueva is just one block over from the main pedestrian street of town which leads right into the shopping district -- Calle Sierpes, lined with the best shopping and liveliest atmosphere, especially in the late afternoon when the locals are out enjoying their traditional stroll.
Sierpes means “Street of the Serpent” perhaps due to its wiggly route and extreme length. It goes for nearly a mile and it's not just the one street it's an entire shopping zone, a fabric of side lanes and parallel streets that make for the most important shopping area of the city. There are a lot of beautiful old buildings here with tiles on the walls in that typical Andalusion style, so you want to be sure to look up a couple of floors to see the roof lines and the tiles up above and windows and balconies, maybe some flowerpots as you're walking along on these main shopping streets.

Tarquinia Beach Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Tarquinia Beach in Italy.
Seen from a distance, the beach at Tarquinia, north of Rome, appears to be quite ordinary, with its rows of parasols, endless pizzerias and gelaterias, and non-stop Latin-lover muzzak pounding out from the sound-system… But Tarquinia cannot forget its illustrious past, and the renowned Etruscans who choose Tarquinia as their main commercial harbour. Just look at the tombs in the necropolis, or the abundance of amphoras… (not all of them, perhaps, totally authentic !). The town today is included on Unesco’s World Heritage listing. So when you go fishing, it’s like fishing in Etruscan times, and when the locals flash a smile, it’s an Etruscan smile…and that changes everything !

Barcelona, Spain, is capital of the Catalan region. We walk through its Gothic Quarter historic center and later visit the most famous building, Sagrada Familia, by Gaudi, also Parc Guell. We walk through narrow lanes in the heart of the Old City, a giant pedestrian zone dating to ancient times.
The fortified town of Carcassonne, France, with its medieval castle up on the hill is completely preserved, a walled fortress with castle in the center. We go inside the castle and on walks through the streets. Two main lanes and several side lanes make up the entire plan, so you can easily wander, looking at the shops and going to the museum.
Avignon has many ancient buildings and lots of modern shops in a comfortable pedestrian zone. Palace of the Popes grew into an imposing fortification during the 60-year papal residency and is now a museum and UNESCO World Heritage list. The pedestrian shopping district extends 10 square blocks south, providing a lot of fun streets for us to explore. Avignon’s Old Town is a charming neighborhood of pedestrian shopping lanes, narrow residential streets and little back alleys. At a half-mile wide and long, this historic center can easily be seen on foot in one day.
Arles was founded by the ancient Romans and still has a 2,000 year-old amphitheater that can hold 20,000 people, still in use today. There are a lot of narrow streets in Arles’ small pedestrian zone, with various squares with cafes around them, and many historic sites. Our walk along narrow pedestrian lanes brings us to the Place du Forum and Place de la République with the former cathedral, Église St-Trophime, a UNESCO World Heritage Site
Aix-en-Provence is one of the prettiest towns in all of France, so lovely that various French surveys have named it the most desirable city in which to live and retire. The pedestrian zone of Aix is an idyllic urban landscape of pretty, low-rise buildings three and four centuries old, with a number of outdoor squares such as Place des Cardoures or the Place de l’Hotel de Ville, the City Hall square, very classy outdoor spot, with the market and the cafes around it, and street markets.
Marseille: we walk through the downtown to the waterfront marina and into the Old Town for a good overview of this second-largest city in France, a place with much historic character.
St-Remy and Les Baux, and the ancient Roman aqueduct of Pont du Gard make a good day-trip from Avignon. St-Remy is noted for impressive remains of the ancient Romans at Glanum. Les Baux is a stone village carved into the rocky limestone hilltop. Pont Du Gard is an impressive Roman aqueduct, the tallest ancient bridge and the second-highest structure the Romans ever built.
Nice, main city of the French Riviera, the Côte d'Azur, has a wide beach, lovely Old Town, and impressive downtown. Day-trips from our home base in Nice will visit Antibes, Cannes, Vence, St-Paul and Monaco, easily reached by short bus or train rides.
Cannes is one of the most famous towns along the Riviera. We will stroll through its pedestrian zone and past the beaches and marina to the Old Town and main shopping street of Rue d’Antibes.
Antibes has a peaceful pedestrian neighborhood with the typical array of shops, cafes and plazas.
Monaco is the world’s richest country and second-smallest nation. We see the Monte Carlo Casino, the Palace, Old Town and we visit the small waterfront village of Villefranche.
Saint-Paul de Vence is a medieval village of stone structures that date back mostly to the 15th and 16th centuries and retains the original character of a 500-year-old stone village.
VENCE is a small village, roughly circular in shape, just 300 meters across, so we can easily see it in a few hours on foot. It is just 5 minutes by bus from St Paul, very convenient to include in our day-trip from Nice. The Old Town is a pedestrian zone with several main lanes and connecting corss-lanes, so it is delightful to walk through, away from automobile traffic. Nice and peaceful, with numerous shops and cafes to keep thinkgs interesting, and the smallest cathedral in France, built in the Romanesque and Gothic styles.
From the French Riviera we continue to the Italian Riviera, where we visit Portofino and the little villages of the Cinque Terre, and Santa Margherita Ligure.
Rome ends the trip, such amazing history, preserved sites, casual life-style and wonderful foods.
Italy: 13 Stunning Travel Destinations
Italy: 13 Stunning Travel Destinations (collected by Lonely Planet)
13. Cinque Terre
Cinque Terre, which means Five Lands, comprise the five small coastal villages of Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and Monterosso located in the Italian region of Liguria. All the towns slope down to sea-level except for Corniglia, which is perched on top of a tall cliff.
12. Evening in Trastevere
Trastevere is one of the centers of Roman night life; rich in pubs, restaurants, clubs. The area has a high population of expatriates and American college students as there are two American universities in the area.
11. Mt Etna, Sicily
The mountain has an eerie volcanic landscape, with solidifed rivers of lava. It is used for skiing in winter, so be prepared for the cold at this altitude, even in summer. Even in good weather in summer, sometimes the top of the mountain is covered in cloud, especially during the afternoon, obscuring the wonderful views.
10. Siena's Palazzo Pubblico
The Palazzo Pubblico, Siena's City Hall for almost 800 years, contains (among many other things) the famous frescos on good and bad government by Ambrogio Lorenzetti, frescoes by Simone Martini and Duccio, and access to the Torre del Mangia, from whose top you can view a beautiful panorama of the Sienese countryside.
9. Duomo, Milan
Milan's main cathedral, a massive late Gothic church in white marble, with hundreds of spires and thousands of statues on its exterior and a famous façade. Don't miss the chance to climb up onto the roof and enjoy the spectacular views of the city between the Gothic spires.
8. St Peter's Basilica, Rome
The centre of the Catholic world, this magnificent basilica with its Michelangelo designed dome has an awe-inspiring interior. This place is huge, but everything is in such proportion that the scale escapes you. The overall design by Bramante and Michelangelo is Late Renaissance but the façade designed by Maderno and the interior, which owes much to Bernini, are both Baroque in style.
7. Lake Como
Lake Como is situated in Como in Lombardy, Northern Italy. It is part of the Italian Lake District. Popular with visitors for well over 100 years for its combination of fresh air, water, mountains and good weather, it's still worth a visit.
6. Slow Food, Piedmont
Slow Food is an international movement founded by Carlo Petrini in 1986. Promoted as an alternative to fast food, it strives to preserve traditional and regional cuisine and encourages farming of plants, seeds and livestock characteristic of the local ecosystem.
5. Amalfi Coast
The Amalfi Coast is a stunning beauty with its steep sloped lemon tree gardens and coloured terrace houses and stunning views and azure sea. It is south east of Naples starting from Sorrento stretching almost to Salerno. Along the coast line you will find places like Amalfi, Ravello etc., each of them stunning beauties with their own flair.
4. Renaissance Florence
Florence is the capital of the region of Tuscany in Italy, with a population of about 366,500. The city is a cultural, artistic and architectural gem. The birthplace of the Italian Renaissance, Florence was the home to powerful families, creative geniuses and scientific masterminds who left their legacies in the city's many museums and art galleries.
3. Pompeii
Pompeii is in Campania, Italy, not far from Naples. Its major attraction is the ruined ancient Roman city of the same name, which was engulfed by Mt. Vesuvius in AD 79. This is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This site is considered to be one of the few sites where an ancient city has been preserved in detail.
2. Basilica di San Marco, Venice
The Patriarchal Cathedral Basilica of Saint Mark is the cathedral church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Venice, northern Italy. It is the most famous of the city's churches and one of the best known examples of Italo-Byzantine architecture. It lies at the eastern end of the Piazza San Marco, adjacent and connected to the Doge's Palace.
1. Historic Rome
Rome, the 'Eternal City', is the capital and largest city of Italy and of the Lazio region. It's the famed city of the Roman Empire, the Seven Hills, La Dolce Vita (sweet life), the Vatican City and Three Coins in the Fountain. Rome, as a millennium-long centre of power, culture and religion, having been the centre of one of the globe's greatest civilizations ever, has exerted a huge influence over the world in its circa 2500 years of existence.
