Things to do in Tower of Gold
Seville's Tower of Gold (Torre del Oro), undoubtedly one of the most iconic landmarks of the city, has guarded Seville since its construction in the 13th century. Built as a watchtower in the Almohad dynasty, through the centuries, the Tower of Gold has been used as a chapel, a prison, a lookout point and a gunpowder store. Climbing the tower is a must-do activity for any visit to Seville. From the top, you can look out for a spectacular view of the river and of the Triana neighborhood. Getting its name from the golden hue its high walls project on the river below, make sure to take a stroll around the base of the tower after you climb to the top!

Reviews Tower of Gold
“Weinig interessante informatie, alleen een hoop informatie over wanneer bruggen gebouwd zijn . Verder ook informatie die achteraf niet bleek te kloppen , zo werkt verteld dat er in een hoge toren allemaal ambtenaren zaten van het Europese parlement . Dit blijkt onzin . Verder werd verteld over een brug in de Genuis boek of Records, maar niet waarom”
“Real gentle, informative ride on the river”
“Hadden ons dit anders voorgesteld dan dat we uit de omschrijving haalden. De boot vaart gewoon een stuk de ene kant op en dan weer terug de andere kant op. Dus weinig te zien. Dan hebben we met de tuck tuck veel meer gezien.”
