Self-Guided Podcast Tour: The Staging of Seville

Seville is a masterpiece of a city, but how much of it is real, and how much is a carefully constructed stage set? Join us on a sweeping narrative journey that uncovers how Seville transformed from the passive subject of 19th-century romantic fantasies into the active, hyper-modern architect of its own global image. From the gritty, tobacco-stained origins of the 'Carmen' myth to the utopian, futuristic ruins of Expo '92, we will explore the fascinating tension between the city's curated identity and the lived reality of its people. This is not just a history tour; it is an investigation into the soul of a city that learned to sell its own shadow. - A 4.7 km self-guided tour with 7 stops over 132 min - Ideal for travelers interested in History & Memory and Identity, Migration & Globalization - Immersively told in a podcast style by experts and locals - Matching audio content, AI guide and navigation through the app
