Without a doubt, you should cross Seville\u2019s most famous bridge to arrive at this neighbourhood of which is so widely heard of.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The cradle of Flameco, home to sailors, the centre of pottery are all mixed together in the most characteristic neighbourhood of Seville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Its inhabitants say that Triana is the \u2018bridge and beyond\u2019 and during many centuries the life of this place developed outside of the walls of the city, only connected to it by a bridge made of wood and little boats called the \u2018Bridge of Boats\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today Triana is a neighbourhood full of life and its own soul, with its impressive Santa Ana Church<\/a>, its summer festival of the same name, its river walkway, its chapels and buildings related to the ceramic trade.\u00a0So much and so concentrated in little space, make it the perfect neighbourhood to wander around and enjoy at our leisure.\u00a0In addition, something that cannot be missed are the night views from the Bridge of Triana.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Triana, with its foundation legend similar to that of Seville\u2019s and just as ancient, from early on it needed its own market, trades and churches. Owing to the rise of the river sometimes in the year\u00a0 it couldn\u2019t depend on the city in front of it.\u00a0What is more, it was through Triana that the oil and food from Aljarafe, a former agricultural region of Seville, arrived, something which turned Triana into a very important surburb.\u00a0With the passing of time these idiosyncrasies resulted in its own architectural style, the most significant being the Corrales de Vecinos, <\/em>groups of dwellings surrounding a central courtyard, these humble houses had nothing in comparison to the palaces of the city centre which were reserved for the people who had greater purchasing power.\u00a0Nevertheless as they were not unique to Triana on the other side of the bridge neighbourhood corrales<\/em> and courtyards survive, however they are more abundant here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here there was the castle of the Sevillian Inquisition, the Castle of San Jorge.\u00a0Its ruins are found underneath the market of Triana and they can be visited by a museum of the same name, which has free entry.\u00a0Another museum to visit in Triana is the Centre of Ceramics, which was one of the oldest potteries, renovated to house this interpretation centre of the traditional craft of the neighbourhood.\u00a0The Regionalist<\/a> buildings of the Altozano Square or San Jacinto Street also deserve special attention, like the inimitable Carmen Chapel, Patron saint of Sailors.\u00a0Finally, you shouldn\u2019t leave Triana without walking down Betis Street -the roman name for the river- and look at the House of Columns, with was the University of Sailors.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is a neighbourhood to walk in, to admire, to lose and submerge yourself in a culture that is not Sevillian but Trianarian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Seville had a child\u2026 and they name her Triana.<\/p>El Pali, Sevillian singer<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
