The main attractions in Seville are the Grand Cathedral and the beautiful Alcazar gardens. The Alcazar was initially the palace and harem of the rulers. Later, it was converted into a fortress that stretches to the famous tower with twelve sides, called Torre Del Oro. During the Moorish rule, this watchtower kept enemies away from reaching the river port by hanging chains from its base into the waters.

After the Christian conquest, a cathedral was built on the old palaces and mosque of the Moorish rulers. One of the largest Gothic churches in the world, the grand cathedral utilizes many of the pre-existing structures. The minaret from where the call to prayers used to be sent out is now the belfry of the cathedral. It was wide enough for the prayer caller to ride on horseback to the top by way of ramps. Today, a statue denoting faith is installed at the top of this bell tower.
