The immense Gothic cathedral, where Christopher Columbus’s tomb is held aloft by four giant statues. Climb the 12th-century Moorish tower for a view of the city.

Through the Real Alcázar, the royal residence of palaces and gardens built in 1364; don’t miss the Ambassadors’ Hall dome of gilded wood (off the Plaza del Triunfo).

The new Flamenco Dance Museum in the heart of the old quarter, offering high-tech exhibits as well as exhilarating lessons (Calle Manuel Rojas Marcos, 3).

Superb Andalusian food with a modern twist at … ay, Maricrú!, an upscale bar in the Santa Cruz neighborhood. Try the toasts with brie and sweetened onions, and chocolate fondue (Pasaje de Vila, 6-Bajo)
