Royal Alcázar of Seville

Seville, Spain, Spain

The Royal Alcázar of Seville is a stunning royal palace in Seville, Spain, originally built as a fortress by the Almohad Muslims in the 10th-12th centuries, then transformed into a lavish Mudéjar masterpiece by King Pedro I in the 1360s with intricate tilework, horseshoe arches, and opulent halls like the Salon de los Embajadores.

After the Christian conquest in 1248, it blended Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque additions under later monarchs such as Alfonso X and Charles V, featuring grand patios like Patio de las Doncellas, lush gardens with pavilions, and private royal quarters still used today.

Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987 alongside Seville Cathedral, it showcases over a millennium of Iberian history through its eclectic architecture and served as a filming location for Game of Thrones' Dorne scenes.
