Where to shop in Seville
|
|
You'll walk past small boutiques in the side streets,
and find everything from the traditional Andalucian shawls to the Spanish big names like Zara and Mango.
The Triana neighborhood has beautiful ceramics that most visitors end up taking as souvenirs, while the EL CORTE INGLES department store (Plaza Duque de la Victoria 8) provides almost everything you're looking for under one roof.
For upscale shops the address is PLAZA NUEVA, while local artists show their stuff every Sunday at a simple but interesting art market on PLAZA DEL MUSEO next to the Museo de Bellas Artes.
Other markets include the famous flea market every Sunday morning in Alameda de Hercules, while on Thursday there's the "El Jueves," with all kinds of stalls filling Calle Feria.
Keep in mind that many of the shops close between 2 and 5PM for siesta time.
Agua de Sevilla
To take home the scent of Seville, get the sweet citrus-floral mixture of fragrances at this shop in Plaza Nueva. You'll also find accessories such as purses and scarves.
Juan Foronda
Juan Foronda has been selling traditional Seville crafts since 1923. There are now a handful of shops, but you're more likely to pass by the one in Calle Sierpes. You'll find the flamenco shawls, decorative pieces, and jewelry.
Sevillarte
Colorful ceramics and bronze figurines are most of what you'll find at the Sevillarte shops (including the mandatory one on Calle Sierpes). Everything is Moorish or Renaissance-inspired, having been created by local artisans here since 1952.
Galeria Rafael Ortiz
It is worth checking out this gallery to see the contemporary paintings by mostly Iberian artists. The exhibitions are always changing, keeping things interesting and with the works selling out quickly.
