Top 7 places to visit (mentally) in Spain
 <p>Spain is incredible, because of its gastronomy, natural landscapes, architectural monuments, historical legacy... and a host of other things that <strong>make this country worth visiting</strong>, from north to south. For that reason, from the <strong>Hotel Sevilla GreenSuites</strong>, we want to bring the most spectacular locations to your home so that you can travel with us mentally through a journey full of nature, history and art. Want to know which places are in our top 7? Keep reading to find out!</p>   <h2><strong>1. Plaza de España in Seville (Andalusia)</strong></h2>   <p>Built for the <strong>Ibero-American Exhibition of 1929</strong>, the Plaza de España is one of the most emblematic architectural and artistic monuments within the city of Seville. It is an obligatory stop for visitors at any time of year and, additionally, you can take a pleasant walk through the gardens of <strong>Maria Luisa Park</strong> that are located around it. The Plaza de España is in the shape of a half moon and represents the Spanish provinces in the form of tiles on benches - a classic in the city!</p>   <h2><strong>2. Roman Theatre of Merida (Badajoz, Extremadura)</strong></h2>   <p>In Merida, <strong>classical theatre</strong> is revived like nowhere else. It is one of the most splendid current scenarios that a spectator can find in Spain. Among its characteristics, its greatness and beauty stand out, which go hand in hand with a continuous conservation of the theatre that is still standing. The <strong>Roman Theatre of Merida</strong> has an <strong>amphitheatre </strong>and arena which give it an impeccable acoustic. In addition, the Corinthian style columns and statues that make up its composition are also eye-catching. Without a doubt, a visit is a must if you haven't already done so.</p>   <h2><strong>3. Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao (Basque Country)</strong></h2>   <p>Dating back to the 1990s, the Guggenheim Museum burst onto the Spanish architectural scene as the beginning of a <strong>visual trend using titanium and curved forms</strong>. For years, the construction of this museum in Bilbao has been the focus of attention as an urbanistic desire of other cities in the world. So much so that its architect, Frank Gehry, was asked to reproduce this style of lines with the <strong>Walt Disney Concert Hall </strong>in the city of Los Angeles. Visitable year-round, the Guggenheim Museum has high-quality permanent and temporary exhibitions.</p>   <h2><strong>4. San Lorenzo de El Escorial in Madrid</strong></h2>   <p>The monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial is considered a wonderful jewel in the Spanish capital, and with good reason. This temple, located in the <strong>Sierra of Madrid</strong>, and from which there are unparalleled views, has a basilica, a library, a monastery and even a Royal Pantheon. In this same <strong>Pantheon </strong>are buried most of the kings of Spain, from Charles I to Alfonso XIII. An architectural treasure that, when there is an opportunity to do so, is worth visiting.</p>   <h2><strong>5. City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia (Valencian Community)</strong></h2>   <p>His activity, loved by some and hated by others, leaves a mark and that is an undisputable fact. We are referring to the work of famed Spanish architect <strong>Santiago Calatrava</strong>, one of the greatest representatives of the architectural movement that sought to <strong>reproduce nature in construction</strong> and is creator of the incredible City of Arts and Sciences, located in Valencia Spain. Both for its exterior and its interior, it is a place to visit at least once in a lifetime. The architecture lacks no lustre!</p>   <h2><strong>6. Hanging Houses in Cuenca (Castilla-La Mancha)</strong></h2>   <p>The "Casas Colgadas", or hanging houses, with wooden balconies are not just any houses. They are located, literally speaking, <strong>on the edge of a cliff</strong>, in front of the Huécar River, and it is due to this arrangement that they are known as the "Hanging Houses". Today, the <strong>Museum of Spanish Abstract Art</strong>, which belongs to the Juan March Foundation, is located inside of them.</p>   <h2><strong>7. Teide in Tenerife (Canary Islands)</strong></h2>   <p>We could not finish this list without including <strong>work created by nature itself</strong>. With endemic species and unique colours, Teide, a volcano located on the island of Tenerife, has an altitude of 3718 meters above sea level. Known by many as "the roof of Spain", Teide is today, <strong>the highest peak in the country</strong>, and simply for this reason, it is worth visiting. Besides, the views from above are unique, what more could you ask for?</p>

Tips for travel during COVID-19
 <p>The situation regarding <strong>the global COVID-19 pandemic</strong> has been evolving and we have lived through different stages within a reality marked by restrictions in mobility and health warnings. Even today there are <strong>constant changes</strong> in restrictions and therefore, from the Hotel Sevilla GreenSuites we want to offer a series of tips if you are in still willing to travel. First and foremost, health and safety are key, but keep reading to learn more details!</p>   <h2><strong>Follow health recommendations</strong></h2>   <p>It is clear that many might be experiencing unpleasant situations and the desire to travel and <strong>see other places</strong> is increasing every day. But we must be responsible with our actions and follow the<strong> health recommendations</strong> given by the authorities of each location. Among these recommendations are to maintain a social distance of 2 metres from other people, to wear a mask, to wash our hands frequently or avoid contact with surfaces that are being handled.</p>   <p>We probably already know many of these recommendations, due to the months that we have been applying them, but it is convenient to keep them in mind at all times so that we do not lower our guard when we are in interior or exterior spaces surrounded by other people. In whatever circumstance, the first priority should always be health and safety.</p>   <h2><strong>Research the local restrictions</strong></h2>   <p>It is also<strong> important to be informed</strong> about the measures taken by the authorities and about the recommendations launched by the health entities. It is key to know what the restrictions are <strong>at the state and local level </strong>to understand the current situation and in what conditions we can travel. This will greatly facilitate transportation and where you’re staying in order to avoid unexpected last-minute surprises due to not being properly informed. Therefore, it is convenient, whether you are traveling within your country or outside your country, that you look for information in a conscientious way in order to be aware of all the details related to the allowed movements. You should consult different media and web pages of your local state organisation, as well as read the conditions of the flight companies or the places of accommodation you have booked.</p>   <h2><strong>Plan your suitcase in advance</strong></h2>   <p>In addition to bringing clothing and footwear on your next trip, remember to also incorporate the now much-needed health kit in your suitcase. The <strong>health kit</strong> might include a set of objects laid out by the health recommendations to maintain an adequate protection in outdoor or indoor spaces. This kit includes a couple of spare hygienic or surgical masks, in case the mask we have reaches its expiration date or accidentally falls off, a bottle of alcohol-based hand sanitizer, with a minimum amount of 60% alcohol, and a thermometer, in case you need to take your temperature.</p>   <h2><strong>Take out travel insurance</strong></h2>   <p>Due to the constant changes, it is advisable to take out travel insurance. In this sense, the context of circumstances may vary before the trip is made and, as a result <strong>we advise you to invest in insurance</strong> in case of emergency changes in schedules or cancellations of flights, for example. Nowadays, many insurance companies have already incorporated new clauses in their policies to advise travellers who keep their desire to travel intact but are affected by unexpected changes.</p>   <p>In any case, remember that <strong>safety is key</strong>. Even though you might have planned the best trip of the year, it is convenient to take into account the current reality that we are going through at the moment and to know how to prioritize health over leisure. It is everyone's responsibility to take the appropriate protective measures and obey the local restrictions in order to try to get out of this situation as soon as possible. Therefore, in the case of not being able to make a trip, it <strong>can always be postponed for later</strong>, without cancelling entirely!</p>
