Stayed in Triana for seven nights, pretty town with a ceramic museum. The main street was busy with lots or restaurants and a market selling lots of fresh produce. Place is peaceful and quiet and close enough for walking to the major sites. The side streets also have great architecture.…

With 3 days in Seville, we had time to explore a little further beyond the Real Alcazar and the Cathedral so we decided to do a looped walk through Triana, which is famous for its ceramics and azulejos tiles. A couple of hours was enough to see the following: i) We started at the Puente Isabella II, the bridge that crosses the Guadalquivir River. This brought us right into the heart of Triana. ii) The first thing you see from the bridge is the Capila del Carmen, a tiny but beautiful chapel iii) The Mercado de Triana (local market) was on our right as we came off the bridge. We should have gone earlier. We went after midday and most things were closing. iv) Next we went to the Museo Del Castilo San Jorge, a small free museum inside the remains of a 12th century castle. The market was built over the top of it, so it’s hidden away underneath the market. The steps down to the entrance are next to the market doors, just as you leave the bridge. The most interesting thing is that for over 300 years the castle was the headquarters of the Spanish Inquisition. There’s an exhibition inside and entry is free. v) Afterwards we wandered around some of the narrow lanes, looking out for colourful, interesting tiled decorations on the houses and walls and we stopped at some of the ceramics shops, esp Ceramica Triana / Ceramica Santa Ana. vi) Finally we headed back to the bridge along Calle San Jacinto, stopping along the way for a drink and a couple of tapas plates.…

Triana is a nice neighborhood across the river from central Seville. My wife and I attended a flamenco show in Triana. There was a tapas restaurant we wanted to visit but it was full and we didn’t want to wait.

Probably due to Covid, either places were closed or too over crowded, didn't feel safe in the crowds so went back across the river

Really worth visiting for its excellent restaurants and a vibe which is very different than "the other side". A lot more gypsy.
