Food Scene

At the heart of Triana this bar is at the top of my list. Great quality and service but go early (before 9:00) if you don’t want to queue. Recom: ‘rosada al limón con pimientitos’ & ‘bacalao dorado'.

[COCKTAILS - 'EMBARCADERO'] My favourite spot in Triana. Keep your eyes open or you will miss the entrance door (very small). The view of the other side of Seville from the River’s bank is amazing.

Sightseeing

While the church itself is stunning, it's the treasury and details that will blow you away. The Madonna is used for the Easter parades and holds a special place in the hearts of the Seville people.
