Setas de Sevilla

Seville, Spain

Setas de Sevilla, also called Metropol Parasol, is a striking wooden canopy dominating Seville’s old quarter. Its elevated walkway provides sweeping views of the cathedral, river and tiled rooftops, making it a modern counterpoint to the city’s historic charm.

Why choose Setas de Sevilla

From the walkway you’ll catch perspectives of Seville that most street‑level routes miss, framing the Giralda against a contemporary silhouette. The experience blends architectural daring with a panoramic tableau you won’t find in traditional monuments.
