Plaza de España | Seville, Spain

The Plaza de España (Spain Square) was built as part of an ample construction programme carried out to commemorate of the Hispano-American Exposition of 1929. It measures 200m in diameter and has an are of 14,000m2.

Made in andalusian regional style (a mixture of mudejar, gothic and renaissance styles). The materials used were brick and ceramics.

Around the square are 48 benches dedicated to the Spanish provinces (situated in alphabetical order), decorated with ceramic tiles, coat of arms and map of the province.

There is a small stream around the square crossed by 4 bridges representing the 4 kingdoms which constitute the Spanish crown: Castille, Leon, Navarre and Aragon.

These building are currently occupied by various public institutions, the civil service and the military.

Beautiful building/plaza, no wonder why they used it for Star Wars Episode II (Attack of the Clones) as one of the landing ports or something like that in Naboo.

It's a beautiful building, indeed Sevilla is a beautiful city. When I visited this building though in 2003 there was no water in the stream, some of the bridges were in quite bad condition and the building seemed like it needed renovation.

If it has been renovated 8.5/10

that's why, we should make all the poll with "public votes".
