Alcazar

Currently, the Alcazar s the royal residence of the King and Queen of Spain while they are in Sevilla. However, before than, it originally was a Moorish fort, and thankfully, much of the detail and architecture has been preserved. It has changed over the years depends who was in power, and one can see the changes that have occurred. It is nothing compared to the Alhambra in Granada, but if you can't make it to Granada while in Sevilla then you have to see the Alcazar.
