Above is Seville's famous Cathedral, the largest of all Roman Catholic Cathedrals in the world. Construction was begun in 1402 on top of the remnants of the Almohad Mosque. It holds the tomb of Christopher Columbus.
The Alcazar of Seville was built beginning in 1364. We enjoyed the audio tour of this World Heritage Sight.
The "Courtyard of the Maidens" is another example of the Moorish influence on the use of water in architecture and design.
