Semana Santa in Seville

WeLoveTapas — Tue, 15 Mar 2016 12:42:10 +0000

Semana Santa (Holy Week) is Spain's major annual religious extravaganza, but nowhere is it celebrated on a scale, or with such fervour, as in Seville. From Palm Sunday (although because the processional timetable is so full some brotherhoods go out on the preceding Friday and Saturday) through to Resurrection Sunday the city virtually shuts down […]

Sevilla | NO8DO

WeLoveTapas — Tue, 15 Sep 2015 10:03:04 +0000

As an observant visitor to our fair city of Seville, you may have noticed, on such diverse objects as lampposts, manhole covers, buildings and garbage trucks, among others, a little motif that seems to read NO8DO, except that the 8 is somewhat large, and often appears as if a little blurred. You may guess from […]

classic vanilla & chocolate cone from Freskura Okay, this is hardly news, but summer in Seville can get pretty hot. Afternoon temperatures often reach 40ºC, the sun beats down from directly overhead, and only mad dogs and Englishmen are still out and about (I’m joking of course; the mad dogs are all indoors, where it’s […]
