Description
I was content to sit and watch but some people love rowing at the Plaza de Espana in Seville Spain. Plaza de Espana is a Renaissance/neo-Moorish curving set of buildings built for the Ibero-American Exhibition of 1929. In front of the building, following the curve of its facade, is a 500-metre canal crossed by four bridges. You can rent small boats to row in the canal - the Plaza is known as "the Venice of Seville" (although I'm not sure a 500 m canal qualifies as Venice!). Perhaps if you lay back in your rowboat and gaze at the blue sky above you can imagine you are at a cool, tree-lined lake!
