So, in order to keep the memories fresh of my recent break in beautiful Seville, I would like to share some photos of the stunning Metropol Parasol - you can read more about it here.
Sit back, put your feet up, and enjoy!
Photos can only give an idea of the sheer size of this amazing structure
Even though starkly modern, it sits well amongst it's more venerable neighbours...
The whole structure reminded me of toadstools...
I'm missing that beautiful Andalusian sky, a shade of blue not quite replicated here in the UK...or, in fact, in this photo, the shade is a really deep blue...
Incredible design and engineering...
What a view, and yes, the cake and coffee were absolutely delicious!
It is possible to walk on top of this amazing structure, so we chose to return in the evening...
From the top, the structure reminded me of a coiled snake...
What a view, Seville is beautiful at any time of day or night...
Even the lift is amazing! I took a photo of DH in here (won't share or he will probably never speak to me again!) as the lift reminded me of the Tardis from Doctor Who, and, as DH is in fact a Doctor I just couldn't resist (the kids thought it was hilarious!!)
Walking back to our hotel, we passed by the Catedral and the Bishops Palace...
Hopefully back soon with photos of our visit to the Real Alcazar.
