This visit is a must to discover the Seville of the XXI century and also to enjoy a panoramic view of all the surroundings.

After years of controversy and controversy worthy of those that occurred during the creation of the Pompidou Center in Paris, as well as work carried out in fits and starts due to technical and financial complications, the building was inaugurated in March 2011. With an initial budget multiplied by three and estimated at 33 million euros for what has officially become the Setas de Sevilla, the name given to it by the Sevillians and meaning "mushrooms". It must be admitted that the result, combining a huge wooden structure at 26 m high supported by six concrete pillars, designed by the Berlin architect Jürgen Mayer-Hermann, has finally found its place in the Sevillian urban landscape. Inside, there is the new Encarnación market, a restaurant area, a pedestrian plaza, an immersive multi-sensory room "Feeling Seville" and the Mirador, which is transformed at night with Aurora, a unique sound and light experience. The basement houses Antiquarium, the archaeological museum. Enclosed in a glass envelope, it displays the remains discovered during the pre-construction work on the site. Most of them date from the Roman period (1st to 6th century), when Seville was still called Hispalis; from the Muslim period, the remains of an Almohad house (12th and 13th centuries) remain. A short visit to the old city is recommended before leaving for Itálica.

Una estupenda experiencia en buena compañía. Disfrutando de Sevilla y sus maravillas.

Imagínate recorrer la historia de Sevilla desde el siglo I hasta el siglo XIII en este espacio de más de 8000 metros cuadrados. El recorrido comienza por una factoría de salazones Romana muy bien conservada (fíjate en cómo hace su aparición el Guadalquivir a través del agua freática presente en sus piletas). Posteriormente encontrarás numerosas casas y mosaicos muy interesantes. Mis favoritos son los de la ninfa Animone, Medusa y el de los pajaritos dándose el piquito. Tras los restos romanos la visita se completa con una casa almohade a la cual le da nombre los restos de una antigua noria de sangre (aquella conducida por un animal). Durante el recorrido te irás encontrando con distintas vitrinas con restos procedentes de la excavación. Un lugar mágico a 8 metros por debajo de la Sevilla del siglo
XXI.

Uno más de los innumerables encantos de Sevilla. En esta ocasión son las tripas de la Sevilla antigua. Muy interesante para cualquier viajero. Además en pleno centro rodeado de una gran oferta cultural, gastronomía y de ocio en general.

Son restos de la ciudad romana que hubo en Sevilla. Además permite situar nuestro río mucho más interior de lo que está actualmente. En mi visita también pude disfrutar de una exposición de pintura de los artistas que venden sus obras lo s domingos en un mercadillo callejero en la plaza del museo
