Private Tour of Seville in 1929 and Ibero-American Exposition

Seville would not be the same without the creation of spaces such as the Plaza de España for the Ibero-American Exhibition of 1929 or other enclaves that give it that traditional, colorful and charming appearance. The postcard image of Seville that we have is thanks to a group of architects who renovated the city between the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, such as Aníbal González, José Espiau, Vicente Traver and Gómez Millán. They knew how to mix medieval, Christian and Muslim styles with Renaissance and Baroque styles in an amazing way until they created their own brand: Sevillian Regionalism. In addition, I will tell you stories about my ancestors during that time, I will tell you about the cafes and fashion of the 1920s, and about one of my novels that recreates that incredible time that resulted in my beautiful hometown.
