At last, here is a final glimpse of Sevilla. These photos are from the
Alcázar, where the royal family still stays whilst in Sevilla. The palace itself is undeniably impressive; it was designed in the Mudéjar style to be plain on the outside and very elaborate on the inside. Our tour guide explained to us that this was in accordance with Muslim belief that internal beauty is much more important. I haven't been able to do sufficient research on this, so I really shouldn't be throwing around what I think may be facts about religion, but that's more or less how I understood it.
Regardless, the Alcázar was enchanting and here are a hastily-captured few attempts to show you how.
