Plaza de toros de la Real Maestranza de Caballería de Sevilla Overview

The Plaza de toros de la Real Maestranza de Caballería, the most renowned bullring in Spain, is situated in Seville. This place has a seating capacity of 12,000 people. One of the most famous bullfighting events in the world is held here every year during the Seville Fair. It is an essential element of the Real Maestranza de Caballería de Sevilla, an aristocratic organization created with the mission of training colonial cavalry.

Bullfighting is a contentious sport, and this bullring, Plaza de Toros de la Real Maestranza de Caballería de Sevilla, serves as both a venue and a museum for it. This stadium located in the city's Historic District is relatively new.Early in the 18th century, the location was home to several wooden bullrings. A permanent structure's construction started in 1761. It took nearly 120 years to create the ring.

It is among the most visited structures in the city and is regarded as one of the best-liked tourist attractions. Due to its layout, features, and audience, which is regarded as one of the most demanding and difficult among bullfighting enthusiasts, it is one of the most challenging bullrings in the world. 

The building is built in a late-Baroque style that closely resembles classical architecture. Because of its distinctive architecture and long history, it is regarded as one of Spain's top bullrings. As a result of its uniqueness and rarity, including the elliptical and unnatural shape of its ring, it is considered to be one of the most beautiful instances of bullfighting architecture.

The April Fair, which is typically held in April, is arguably Seville's most famous celebration. At this time, Andalusian booths are set up, horse-drawn carriage rides are scheduled, and a variety of other activities are planned here.

We booked Spanish tour by mistake but our guide was happy to accommodate and she captured our interest from the start.  Very interesting tour although still would not ever want to go to a bull fight.  Would highly recommend.
