Plaza de España is one of Seville’s most iconic landmarks, a sweeping architectural masterpiece created for the 1929 Ibero‑American Exposition. Designed by Aníbal González, the plaza curves in a grand semi‑circle, blending Renaissance Revival and regionalist styles with intricate brickwork, colourful ceramics, and elegant bridges that cross a narrow canal. Its central fountain and vast open space give the square a theatrical sense of scale, while the surrounding alcoves, each decorated with tiled benches representing Spain’s provinces, invite visitors to linger and explore. The building’s long colonnades and soaring towers frame the plaza with a sense of harmony and pride, making it a favourite setting for films, photographs, and leisurely strolls. Set within the lush María Luisa Park, Plaza de España remains a vibrant symbol of Seville’s artistic ambition and cultural identity, offering a memorable blend of history, craftsmanship, and open‑air beauty.
