I have been in Sevilla for three weeks now! I can’t believe it, and time is starting to fly by. This past week, my boyfriend and I explored La Catedral de Sevilla and La Giralda one day after class. La Catedral began as a Mosque in 1181 and started becoming a Cathedral in 1248. La Giralda is a bell tower connected to La Catedral that overlooks all of Sevilla. It was absolutely breathtaking. Afterward, we went to the Guadalquivir River and bought “chocolate con churros” during sunset. The churros were amazing! They also made me want a Wendy’s chocolate frosty with fries. The following are some photos from that afternoon (by the way, La Catedral and La Giralda are less than 10 minutes from my apartment!).
The ceiling of La Catedral. The dark sculptures are organs.
This is one of the organs from the picture above. The lighting was unbelievable.

The view! You can see the roof of La Catedral and the bull fighting arena from this side.
