Plaza de España, Sevilla
Sevilla Plaza Mayor
An impressive work of Seville's best known modernist style architect, Hannibal Gonzalez, the plaza was made for the "Ibero-American Exposition 1929" and is located in the center of "Maria-Luisa-Park", forming a semi-circle around an artificial lake.
The two highly individual towers at its both extremes and the great ceramic ornaments which symbolize the provinces of Spain make it one of the most characteristical buildings in town.
Incidentally, Seville is the home of the legendary 'Don Juan'.
It was my birthday when we went around the city. Would like to go back to this place again. Its my favorite among the various cities in southern spain which I visited. We stayed a couple of days but then most of those days were spent going around the World Expo held that year in this city.
