Las Murallas del Alcázar de Sevilla son una joya histórica impresionante. Construidas en diferentes épocas desde la dominación almohade, estas fortificaciones rodean el Real Alcázar y son un testimonio vivo de la historia defensiva de la ciudad. El paseo junto a las murallas es especialmente bello al atardecer, cuando la iluminación dorada resalta los detalles de la arquitectura medieval. Las torres y almenas están muy bien conservadas. Es impresionante caminar junto a estas murallas milenarias e imaginar su importancia estratégica. Acceso gratuito y ubicación céntrica perfecta.

Es espectacular todo el complejo del Alcázar. Imperdible. El audioguia deja bastante que desear y no está bien señalizado el recorrido. De todas maneras si están por Sevilla, no se lo pierdan.

Estan muy bien conservadas y por eso es fácil dimensionar la magnitud de esta construcción
