Nella città regina incontrastata dell’Andalusia sono tanti i monumenti e luoghi da visitare. Fra questi, la Cattedrale di Siviglia è di incomparabile magnificenza.
Ci vollero ben 75 anni per costruire quella che oggi è la più grande cattedrale gotica al mondo, la terza in assoluto dopo la Cattedrale di San Paul a Londra e San Pietro in Vaticano a Roma.
La sua imponenza lascia senza parole, con 126 metri di lunghezza, 83 di larghezza e 37 di altezza arriva a coprire una superficie di ben 11.000 metri quadrati.
Nel 1987 la Catedral de Santa Maria de la Sede de Sevilla è stata dichiarata Patrimonio dell’Umanità dall’Unesco.
In stile gotico e rinascimentale, questo immenso complesso religioso, costruito nel 1401 lì dove una volta sorgeva la moschea Aljama, preserva importanti elementi di origine arabo-musulmana come la Giralda, la torre campanaria nata come minareto, e il Patio de los Naranjos, chiostro della cattedrale.
All’interno della magnificente struttura, che presenta cinque navate alte fino a 36 metri, sono custodite in un mausoleo le spoglie di Cristoforo Colombo.
Per questa mia prima giornata in visita alla città andalusa inserita al primo posto nella classifica delle dieci mete migliori da visitare nel 2018 dalla guida Lonely Planet, ho scelto di indossare un tailleur pantalone in stampa check. Per questa PE, infatti la moda predilige il pattern dal fascino evergreen, rivisitato in chiave contemporanea, declinato in nuove e irresistibili combinazioni. Io l’ho adottato in total look, perchè è di carattere e perchè la moda del power suit è sempre più cool. E la mia grande cura per i dettagli mi ha portato a completare il look con un bracciale “ancora” in oro rosa, di Monaco Regatta, il brand di gioielleria dallo stile unico e inconfondibile.
La Cattedrale di Siviglia, terza chiesa più grande del mondo, è un meraviglioso esempio di architettura gotica, e la Giralda ne è il suo simbolo. – https://www.andalusiaspagna.com/siviglia/cattedrale-sivigli

Seville’s cathedral, Santa Maria de la Sede, is the largest Gothic cathedral in the world and is recognized as UNESCO World Heritage. Its impressive size makes it the third largest in the Christian world, after Saint Peter’s in Vatican city and Saint Paul’s in London.
The cathedral’s construction lasted over a century, from 1401 to 1506. It is said that when the plans were drawn up, church elders stated, “Hagamos una iglesia tan hermosa y tan grandiosa que los que la vieren labrada nos tengan por locos.” (Let us build a church so beautiful and so magnificent that those who see it finished will think we are mad).
The basilica occupies the site of the great Aljama mosque, built in the late 12th century, of which the only remaining parts are the Patio de Naranjas, and the Giralda, formerly the minaret, now the magnificent bell tower.
Sheer size and grandeur are, inevitably, the chief characteristics of the Cathedral, although two other qualities stand out with equal force – the rhythmic balance and interplay between the parts, and an impressive overall simplicity and restraint in decoration.
The interior is enormous and boasts five large naves. The building is 126 meters long and 83 meters wide (413 x 272 ft), with a ceiling height of up to 37 meters (121 ft).
Near the main entrance to the cathedral stands the large funeral monument to Christopher Columbus which supposedly contains the body of the famous explorer.

For my first day in the Andalusian city included by Lonely Planet guide in its 2018 ranking of the best places to visit in the world, I chose to wear a check suit. This SS fashion prefers the evergreen charming pattern, revisited in a contemporary key, declined in new and irresistible combinations. I have adopted it in total look because the return of the female power suit is absolutely cool. And my great attention to detail led me to complete the look with an “anchor” bracelet in pink gold, by Monaco Regatta, the jewelry brand with a unique and unmistakable style.
