When is the best time to visit The Alcazar of Seville?

Spring is an amazing time of year in Seville with mild and sunny weather and the city is alive with colour as the flowers begin to bloom making it the perfect time to visit the Alcazar of Seville so you can enjoy its amazing gardens.

• Mild weather: Spring in Seville is normally warm with average temperatures ranging from 15°C to 25°C and this makes it comfortable to walk around the palace and gardens without feeling too hot or cold.
