Hidden Seville
The monuments are extraordinary and everyone finds them. What almost nobody finds is the city in between, which is where I spend my time.
Not secret tunnels. Just doors left open, courtyards you can walk into, and streets that reward looking up.
A convent that sells sweets through a turning wooden drum. A Roman column holding up a corner nobody notices. A tiled sign explaining a fight from 1620.
Hidden Seville is less about places you have never heard of and more about details you would have walked straight past.
Casa de Pilatos and its Renaissance patio, five minutes from the crowds and a world away from them.
The Alameda de Hércules, with two columns brought from a Roman temple that stood a few streets away.
Calle Feria on a Thursday, where the market has run since the thirteenth century.
The corrales de vecinos in Triana, the shared courtyards where flamenco grew up.
Slowly, and with fewer stops than you would expect. Depth beats distance.
Private, so we can stand in a doorway for ten minutes if the story deserves it.
Always adjusted to what you react to — if the Roman layer grabs you, we follow it.
