As well as being home to the balcony that inspired the iconic scene in Romeo and Juliet (in (Plaza Alfaro), another must-visit is Calle Agua (Water Street).
- Triana: Today, this former gypsy neighbourhood is known for its whitewashed houses adorned with handmade ceramics, its association with flamenco artists and bullfighters, and the lively market.
