What to see during your language trip to Seville?
Here are some festivals, cultural events, and monuments that you can't miss during your language trip to Seville. One of the biggest attractions of studying in Seville is its cultural and festive heritage. Every corner has a history, every alleyway holds a legend, and every time of year offers a unique experience.
- The Giralda and the Cathedral. You can't be in Seville and not climb the Giralda, the iconic bell tower from which you can see the entire city. The Cathedral is also one of the largest in the world and houses the tomb of Christopher Columbus.
- The Real Alcázar. This palace of Muslim origin is an architectural gem. Its courtyards, gardens, and halls have even appeared in series such as Game of Thrones. It is the perfect place to learn vocabulary related to art, history, and culture.
- The Santa Cruz neighborhood. Getting lost in its white alleyways, with hanging pots and flower-filled balconies, is like traveling back in time. It's an ideal place to practice your Spanish by asking about local legends or simply chatting with the locals.
- The Plaza de España and María Luisa Park. One of the most photogenic places in the city. Here you can rent a bike, read a book in the sun, or simply stroll around listening to street musicians.
And if you're lucky enough to experience a language trip to Seville in the spring, don't miss:
- Holy Week, spectacular, solemn, and deeply moving. The processions, the incense, the saetas sung from the balconies... A tradition that is lived intensely.
- The April Fair with its colors, flamenco dresses, horses, tents, sevillanas, rebujito, and lots of joy. Even if you don't dance, you'll be infected by the festive atmosphere.
Seville's cuisine
Food in Seville is a fundamental part of social life and, therefore, of the language. Sitting down to eat is also a way of learning, practicing, and enjoying yourself that you can't miss during your language trip to Seville.
The concept of tapas in Seville is an institution. From potato omelettes to salmorejo, spinach with chickpeas, carrillada, or fried fish. Eating tapas with your classmates or with locals is the most fun way to learn authentic Spanish.
You can't leave without visiting the traditional markets and bars. These places, such as the Triana Market or the Encarnación Market, are perfect for trying fresh produce, talking to vendors, and learning about ingredients and recipes.
But if you have a sweet tooth, don't miss the torrijas during Holy Week or the pestiños at Christmas. Each season brings new flavors, all linked to local tradition and culture.
And to top off your language trip to Seville, why not sign up for Spanish cooking classes? It's a great way to learn specific vocabulary while cooking and eating what you've prepared.
A complete experience beyond language
The best thing about a language trip to Seville is that learning doesn't stop when you leave the classroom. Everything you do, see, hear, and share is part of the experience. You improve your Spanish without even realizing it, while enjoying a unique environment. And the best part is that at the end of your trip, you'll take home experiences, stories, new friends, and a special connection with a city that welcomes you as one of its own.
