While Granada's Alhambra is in every mouth, Sevilla might actually be one of the best places to see Moorish heritage in Spain. After the city was retaken by the Catholic Spanish kings, the former mosque became the city's provisional cathedral; later, elements of it were integrated into what today is the world's third-biggest cathedral.

Cathedral in Sevilla

This place in Sevilla, Spain features two of the city's most important landmarks: The cathedral, which is the third-biggest in the world, and the beautiful royal palace (right) where parts of the kingdom of Dorne for Game of Thrones was filmed.

This panoramic view over Sevilla can only be seen from one place: La Giralda, which is what the clock tower of Sevilla's cathedral is called. Originally, this tower was built as the minaret of a mosque during the Moorish reign of the Iberian peninsula and rebuilt into the tower of the cathedral after the Reconquista.

I took this photo in the wonderful Real Alcázar (royal palace) in Sevilla. This place features wonderful architecture and equally beautiful gardens! No wonder it was chosen as the filming location for the water gardens of Dorne in Game of Thrones.
