Plaza Nueva

Like most central plazas, Plaza Nueva is a popular meeting spot and located between the shopping streets and many of Seville’s other famous attractions. There are many markets that take place here throughout the year, such as the Book Fair and the Artisan Market. Looking over the plaza is a statue of the king who retook Seville from the Moors in 1248, King Fernando III. The ayuntamiento, or town hall, is also here! It’s fun to sit and take in the sights here, especially in the afternoon after all the kids have finished school because they race around on bike and scooters.
