Seville's Alacazar Gardens

Until we figured out the dates of the feria, we were going to Seville mainly to see the old town and the cathedral and the Alcazar, the great Moorish palace and gardens that are my favorite secular Moorish place in Spain. True, the Alcazar in Seville was built by a Christian prince, but he hired Granada builders to do the job. This was before international Gothic or other styles, and, I conjecture, Moorish was the only style anybody knew in Spain at the time, apart from Roman. In any case, the Alcazar is beautiful throughout (more so than the more "authentic" Alhambra (well, authentic to  fanciful 19th century reconstruction)). We first visited the Alcazar in the winter of 2010, not a great time for gardens. Mid-April is much better.
