Barrio de la Cruz
What is it?
Seville's old Jewish quarter is the Spain everyone dreams of; whitewashed alleyways, balconies brimming 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 streets and pretty squares. Stop for the killer tortillita de camarones (shrimp omelette) at Bodega Santa Cruz (better known as 'Las Columnas').
