The 7-day plan, rearranged for 4 days: the best-ranked places stay, and each day keeps to one part of town.
From average weather, 2021 to 2025: days that are warm but not hot, with few rainy days, score highest. Crowds and prices change through the year, so check them before you book.
Built from the plan’s must-sees, grouped so each day stays close together and ordered by time of day.
A great half-circle of brick and painted tiles beside a little canal, built for a world fair in the 1920s. Each tiled alcove stands for a province of Spain.
Go when Morning, when the light is soft and the square is calm.
Local tip Walk the full curve to find the alcove of your home province, or the one that matches your birthday town. The canal has rowing boats.
A royal palace of carved plaster, tiles and quiet courtyards, with gardens of pools and orange trees behind it. Take it slowly and spend the longest time in the gardens.
Go when Afternoon, then stay on in the gardens.
Local tip Check ahead for how to book, because lines can be long. Save the gardens for last, and sit by a fountain when your feet need it.
Salmorejo is a thick, cold tomato soup, topped with egg and cured ham. With a plate of Iberian ham and bread, it is a cool, filling lunch on a warm day.
Local tip Order a small plate to share and save space for dinner.
The old Jewish quarter, a maze of narrow whitewashed lanes, small squares and balconies hung with flowers. Wander without a plan and let yourself get a little lost.
Go when Around sunset (about 7:30 PM), when the lanes empty out and the lamps come on.
Local tip Follow the smallest lanes and the little squares. Look up at the balconies and look down at the tiled street signs.
Tapas are small plates, and the custom is to move from bar to bar, a plate and a drink at each. Choose a few bars in the lanes and share what comes.
Local tip Spinach with chickpeas and tender pork are classic Seville choices.
Built from the plan’s must-sees, grouped so each day stays close together and ordered by time of day.
One of the largest Gothic cathedrals in the world, built where a great mosque once stood. Walk the long nave, then look at the grand tomb of Columbus.
Go when Morning, early, before the tour groups gather.
Local tip Walk the whole nave once, then sit for a few minutes by the side chapels. The orange tree courtyard beside it is a good place to rest.
The tall bell tower beside the cathedral, once the minaret of the mosque. Inside, wide ramps rise instead of stairs, so the climb is gentle.
Go when Late morning, once you have seen the cathedral below it.
Local tip The ramps are wide and gentle, with small windows on the way up. Stop at the top for the view over the white rooftops.
A warm Seville dish of spinach and chickpeas, lightly spiced with cumin and garlic. A simple, comforting lunch after the park.
Local tip Ask for it as a small plate and eat it with bread.
The neighborhood across the river, known for its tiles and pottery and for its flamenco. Cross the bridge, walk the riverside street and watch the light change.
Go when Early evening, ideally around sunset (about 7:30 PM).
Local tip Walk the riverside street, look for shops with painted tiles in the windows, and keep one corner free for a tapa on the way back.
Seville has terraces on its rooftops that look out at the cathedral and the Giralda lit up at night. This is the evening to reserve a table for two, order a few shared dishes such as slow-cooked oxtail or grilled pork, and take your time.
Local tip Book ahead, ask for a table outside, and bring a layer, because evenings in late March can turn cool.

A palace city on a hill, with carved plaster halls, tiled courtyards and long views over Granada. Entry is by timed ticket and slots can sell out, so book ahead and check ahead for the rules.
Go when Choose your slot when you book, and arrive a little early.
Local tip Entry is by timed ticket and slots can sell out, so book ahead and check ahead for the rules. Wear comfortable shoes and plan a long, slow visit.
The old Moorish quarter on a hill across from the Alhambra, with steep cobbled lanes and white houses that hide small gardens behind their walls. Wear shoes for the stones.
Go when Morning, when the lanes are quiet and cool.
Local tip Walk uphill slowly and stop to look through the open gates at the small gardens. Wear shoes that handle old cobbles.
In many Granada bars, a small plate arrives with each drink you order. It is a friendly way to eat a long lunch for little effort.
Local tip Order a second drink and see what comes with it. The plate is often bigger the second time.
The summer retreat of the Alhambra, a cool garden of water channels, flower beds and shady paths. A restful place for two to end a long visit.
Go when Afternoon, as the shade moves across the garden.
Local tip Follow the water channels and the shady paths, and sit for a while. Check ahead on whether your ticket covers it.
Habas con jamón is a Granada classic: tender broad beans cooked with cured ham, simple and rich. Good with a glass of local wine.
Local tip Share a plate, then follow with a small grilled dish.
Built from the plan’s must-sees, grouped so each day stays close together and ordered by time of day.
A great mosque with a forest of red and white arches, and a cathedral built right inside it. Walk slowly among the columns, then step out into the courtyard of orange trees.
Go when Morning, as early as you can manage.
Local tip Walk the forest of arches without hurry, then look for the point where the cathedral nave rises inside the old hall. Check ahead for how to book.
A small square on the hillside with the classic view across the valley to the Alhambra and, on a clear day, the snowy mountains behind it. A good place to sit for a while.
Go when Late afternoon, around sunset (about 7:30 PM).
Local tip It is popular at sunset, so come a little early to get a spot on the wall. A short walk away, the quieter viewpoints have the same view.
The long stone bridge over the Guadalquivir, with its origins in Roman times. Stroll across at the end of the day while the light turns the old town gold.
Go when Evening, around sunset (about 7:30 PM).
Local tip Walk across on the bridge itself, then turn and look back at the old town with the river in front of it.
Rabo de toro is the slow-cooked oxtail stew that Córdoba is known for, rich, tender and served with fried potatoes. A warm, satisfying dinner.
Local tip Share one portion between two if you have been snacking all day.
