Day 3 : LISBON TO SEVILLE GUIDED CITY TOUR OF SEVILLE
After continental breakfast at the hotel, check out and proceed via the modern Tagus Bridge and across the border to the Spanish town of Seville. Seville conjures up images of raven-haired flamenco dancers, bullfights and extravagant Mudéjar architecture. A hybrid of Islamic and European traditions, this fusion is best reflected in the splendor of the Alcázar, a palace still in use by members of the Spanish royal family. Seek out Casa de Pilatos, 16th-century palace of the dukes of Medinaceli and delight in its fountains and salons. The Sevillians' passion for bullfighting is visible on a tour of the Real Maestranza bullring and its onsite museum, which houses paintings and embellished matador costumes. On arrival proceed for a guided tour of the city that includes the immense cathedral, the burial place of Christopher Columbus, the slender Giralda Tower and the Santa Cruz Quarter with its flower-decked wrought-iron balconies. In the evening, you will be treated to a local dinner while being entertained by Flamenco dancers. This folk music and dance from the Andalicia region of Spain has gained worldwide popularity in recent years and has even been featured prominently in the Bollywood blockbuster, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. After the fun filled evening, retire to your hotel in Seville for overnight stay.
