Севилья или 300 грамм Колумба🤣🍾

🏛️ Seville or 300 Grams of Columbus😎: When a Day Off Becomes an Adventure!!! Friends, this is our story about how on May 1st, 2026, during a transatlantic cruise from New York to Barcelona on the MSC Meraviglia, we went on an excursion to Seville. And instead of seeing everything we planned, we saw something we didn't. And it was just as good. 😉 What was planned: The Cathedral (the second largest in the world!) The Giralda Bell Tower The Royal Alcazar The Golden Tower (Torre del Oro) What actually happened: May 1st is Labor Day in Spain. Almost all museums and palaces are closed. 🙈 But we didn't give up—and we had a completely different, no less vibrant experience. Points of interest for orientation: 00:41 – 01:22 — Road to Seville (Andalusian landscapes, first impressions) 01:22 – 04:03 — Brief history of Seville as told by guide Julia (from the Romans to the present day) 04:03 – 05:13 — Spanish tavern: how to choose the right ham (and not go wrong) 05:13 – 06:40 — Seville bullfighting: what it is and why it is important for the city 06:40 – 07:17 — City walk. May Day in Seville: What is a Mirador and Why Go There 07:17 – 08:27 — What is Mudéjar (and why is it important to know this word when exploring Andalusia) 08:27 – 09:28 — Plaza de San Francisco and the Mañana philosophy (when will you have time to do it all?) 09:28 – 10:30 — Cathedral of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary (even closed from the outside, it's impressive) 10:30 – 12:08 — Plaza de España (we've made it! 🎉) Why "300 Grams of Columbus"?
