                <description><![CDATA[Yes, it's in all the guide books but the Alcazar is easily missed.  From the outside it doesn't look anything special but inside it's magical and a lot less frantic than the Alhambra. If you visit make sure you spend some time in the gardens. If you only have an afternoon in Seville and have to choose between the Cathedral and the Alcazar then give the Cathedral a miss.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Pedro the Cruel's Palace (1364 with ealier bits). On a much more manageable scale than the Alhambra in Granada but even more beautiful. Interesting gardens at every turn. The gardens close at 5.00pm, so go ealier for the full experience. Opens 1.30pm Sundays, closed Mondays.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[This is a splendid palace built in a similar style to the Alhambra in Granada with statues of romantic goddesses, azulejo tiling and enchanting fountains. According to legend, it is an exact copy of Pilate's palace in Jerusalem (hence the name). A beautiful blend of 16th century architecture and Mudéjar, Gothic and Rennaisance styles - a great introductory piece to these styles if you're going on to see the Alhambra in Granada.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[The new Flamenco Dance Museum by Cristina Hoyos is definitely worth a visit. With its interactive rooms, you can find loads of information of flamenco dance and dancers, alas, not so much of guitarists and singers. 10€ / 8€.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Don't be put of by the name, this "charity hospital", in particular the entrance patio and it's gem of a chapel, are well worth a visit. The place was built in 1676 as a home for the destitute and still operates as such. There is a small entrance charge, but the original paintings by Murillo and Valdés Leal (including one of a dead bishop being eaten by worms) plus the chapel itself, make it great value.]]></description>
