Seville, or Sevilla in Spanish, is Andalucia’s capital and Spain‘s fourth largest city. With heritage both from the Arabs and the Age of Discovery, as well as the flamenco scene, Seville is a diverse destination. The Guadalquivir River flows through Seville, and has been a busy port from Roman times, under Muslim rule, and exploding during the Age of Discovery. As the monopoly was broken and Cádiz largely took Seville’s place, the city entered a period of relative decline but recent years there has been an upsurge in visitor numbers as the amount of historic places to visit cannot be be missed for anyone interested in the world of discovery and heritage. In the 19th century Seville gained a reputation for its architecture and culture and was a stop along the Romantic “Grand Tour” of Europe. Seville has built on its tourism industry since, playing host to the International Exposition in 1992, which spurred the construction of a new airport, a new train station, a bullet train link to Madrid, new bridges and improvements to the main boulevards. Tourist facilities are top-notch and the city is buzzing with festivals, colour and a thriving nightlife scene. ___ MUSIC Flamenco Corazon - Stefan Netsman Spanish Heart - Martin Carlberg Flamenco 101 - Stefan Netsman Source: http://www.epidemicsound.com/ ___ WEB http://www.joejourneys.com FACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/joejourneys INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/joejourneys TWITTER https://twitter.com/joejourneys ___ CAMERAS AND EQUIPMENT • Sony A7 II http://amzn.to/2r8TJ6A • Sony SEL1635Z E Mount Full Frame Lens http://amzn.to/2rPAXDa • GoPro Hero 5 https://amzn.to/2rOCY3Y • Zhiyun Z1 Evolution Stabilizer Gimbal http://amzn.to/2nIjxoB • iPhone 6s • Amazon.co.uk - http://amzn.to/2nPdTBW
