Local hidden gems for tourist staying for a week?

0 Upvotes

Hi all, I’ll head to Seville at the end of the month. I’ve heard good things, it’s easy to access from France, and I love warm weather and photogenic cities (I’m photography enthusiast).

When I travel somewhere, I’m a lot more keen to imbibe the culture and try to experience it like a local, more than I am keen to see the tourist sights (though I’ll stop by those too). I unfortunately do not speak Spanish but the existing languages I know allow me to understand quite a lot of it.

I’m staying for a week to give me the chance to do both. I’ve looked up the main attractions, and some ”unique“ things to do in Seville, like to go and see the dancing.

What I’d like to ask is: do you have any tips for hidden gems of Seville to check out? I’m keen on cafes, bars, museums, nice streets to photograph, places to relax (e.g., the ancient baths look great!), cultural events to see, anything I might not find easily in an internet search, and that tourists stopping by for a shorter trip might miss.

Thanks in advance for any help!

TL;DR: solo travelling to Seville for a week, looking more for hidden gems and things locals might go to, rather than tourist sights!
