Architecture: In addition to the large number of civilian and military buildings that constitute the heritage of the city, a number of contemporary buildings that spark the interest of tourists travel to Seville. Them one of the most important is the site of the Universal Exhibition in Seville (EXPO), which was still standing. Most buildings and architectural designs that formed the exhibition of 1992 have now been re-used for such activities as the Science and Technology Park Cartuja 93.

Monuments: list all the monuments of this city would be a long job. Seville has kept many of the most important architectural works of its own history as a city of many cultures. One of the oldest are the Canos de Carmona, the remains of a Roman aqueduct. La Casa del Moro, Seville is another curiosity because it is one of the few examples of home construction that has remained until today. But the most famous monuments of this city is undoubtedly the Giralda. This is the minaret from which it drew attention to the faithful to prayer in the mosque of Seville. It was only this tower that later led to Christians a shot that gave shelter to the bells.

La Torre del Oro is one of the great monuments of Seville. Unlike the Giralda, this had its origins in a military function and not religious. The name comes from an ancient tile coating that gave a gold from the distance, but what is more curious in its construction is that it is a dodecahedron shaped plan, which has 12 faces.
