Barrio de la Cruz
What is it? Seville’s old Jewish Quarter is the Spain that everyone dreams of; whitewashed lanes, balconies spilling over with scarlet geraniums, fountains tinkling in secret tiled courtyards.
Why go? It’s a place to abandon the map and wander at will, exploring the whitewashed maze of narrow alleys and pretty squares. Stop for the killer tortillita de camarones (shrimp omelette) at the Bodega Santa Cruz (better known as ‘Las Columnas’).
