Seville's cathedral was built on the site of the mosque when the Christians re-conquered the city, so parts of it – the Giralda, the Patio de los Naranjos and the arched gateway - date from the Islamic era. After choosing just a tiny proportion of the cathedral's treasures to highlight, we head off to the nearby area of Santa Cruz, home to Seville's Jewish community before they fled Spain during the Inquisition. Today it's a charming labyrinth of tiny cobbled streets and flower-filled patios, enticingly viewed through wrought iron gates.
