The best places to visit in Seville, Spain

My goal be visiting Seville was the skydive dropzone but after spending some time at the city, my list of why visiting the city grew a lot. Besides the fact that it is a beautiful city, there is also the fact that the city has everything good that you can possibly want:  skydive, trekking, point views, parks and a lot of bars <3

Here’s a list of things to do:
