Creo que es un sitio a visitar obligatoriamente si vienes a Sevilla. Está al lado del río, en un enclave precioso, cuidado, limpio y tremendamente concurrido. Se puede entrar, subir a la parte alta, y ver la ciudad desde esas vistas. Un sitio que a simple vista no llama la atención en exceso, pero que si te fijas, y lees un poco los orígenes, cobra todo el valydel mundo.

Excelente la visita a este lugar histórico, la entrada es gratuita pero pagas algo representativo, no había mucha cola para entrar, el tiempo de espera es bastante razonable, tiene un pequeño museo naval e histórico donde puedes apreciar algunas maquetas y piezas navales. Al subir a la torre tienes unas vistas impresionantes de Sevilla, no hay acceso para personas con movilidad reducida, hay que subír muchas escaleras que son pequeñas, así que si tiene dificultad para caminar es recomendable no subir

Torre con mucha historia dentro, es una bella estructura antigua y su función ahora es otra, es un icono de Sevilla, al llegar a la cima tienes unas buenas vistas de la ciudad y del Río Guadalquivir , en su parte media dentro De la Torre hay unas maquetas y reproducciones de pinturas que hacen parte de la historia náutica de la región. Es uno de pocos lugares que te dejan entrar y que el aporte que haces es voluntario, esto me gusta ya que en la mayoría de edificios antiguos no tienen esa opción.
