The second day in Spain 西班牙之旅的第二天

This morning when we woke up, Spanish sunshine and breeze already were waiting for us to enjoy. Such a nice weather gave us a wonderful trip in south of Spain---Sevilla!

今晨醒来，西班牙的阳光和微风早已等待我们一同去感受了。如此美好的天气让我们此次西班牙南部塞尔维亚之旅变得非常精彩！

Our apartment was located in Malaga, just very close to the coast. From the balcony, we could see the blue sea and many white houses ( some hotels and some private villas )...

我们的酒店公寓坐落于马拉加海滨附近。从阳台上我们可以看到湛蓝的大海和洁白的房屋（一些是酒店，一些是私人别墅）。

This was a very quiet morning.

这是个非常安静的早晨。

We lived in the 3rd floor, the neighbors balconies and the small swimming pool could be seen from our balcony.

我们住在三楼，从阳台上可以看到邻居家的阳台和楼底下的小游泳池。

I liked standing on the balcony and looking around, the feeling was very nice.

我喜欢站在阳台上四处眺望，那种感觉非常的惬意。

It was the out-looking of our apartment.

这是我们住的酒店公寓的全貌。

Now we were driving to Sevilla, I took some pictures in the car. You could imagine that how busy I was! I did not want to miss any nice view along the highway！

现在我们正驾车前往塞尔维亚，在车上我拍了一些像片。可以想象得出当时的我有多忙碌，因为我不想错过高速公路两旁呈现的美景！

But my honey always liked driving fast, it gave me much more difficulties to take some nice pictures in the car, as well as needed me much more concentration on operating the camera quickly while finding some nice landscapes, if not, then the pictures would be blur definitely.

但是我老公总喜欢飚车，让我在车里很难拍到理想的作品。当我发现美景的同时，还要集中精力迅速操作相机，否则如果稍微慢几秒，拍到的像片绝对是模糊不清的。

Most of moutains in Spain are brown, too bald without many trees, just because of the dry weather, too much sunshine and not enough raining.

大多数西班牙的山峰都是褐色的，光秃秃的没多少绿色树木，那是因为这里的气候非常的干燥，阳光过于充裕，而降雨量却少得可怜。

We would arrive Sevilla soon...

我们就要到达塞尔维亚了……

This was the city center of Sevilla.

这是塞尔维亚市中心。

After parking our car, we went to a restaurant to take lunch. We ordered some local food, they tasted different with Austrian food, some of them were really not so bad. But I did not like Spanish bread, not only tasted flavourless, but also not as various as Austrian ones.

停车后，我们到一家餐馆里吃午饭。我们点了些当地的小吃，味道和奥地利菜不太一样，有些还不错。但是我不喜欢西班牙的面包，不仅吃起来无味，而且没有奥地利的品种多样。

Near the restaurant, we could see few parts of Sevilla Cathedral.

在餐馆附近，我们可以看到塞尔维亚大教堂的一部分建筑。

On the way to Sevilla Cathedral, there were many shops which selling some Spanish traditional clothes, fans, Spanish dolls and some other souvenirs.

在通往塞尔维亚大教堂的路上，有许多商店出售一些西班牙传统服饰，折扇，玩偶和其他的纪念品。

The bell tower!
钟楼！

Sevilla Cathedral!

塞尔维亚大教堂！

As soon as we entered the cathedral, we could see a big silver statue at the entrance.

当我们一走进大教堂，就可以在入口处看到一个很大的银质雕像。

The cathedral was very high, deep and magnificent. Each corner looked like a picture, very beautiful.

大教堂非常高深宏伟，每个角落都象一幅优美的画面。

In such an old cathedral, it was very difficult to take some clear pictures by our normal digital camera. If used the flash, the quality would be even worse.

在如此古老的大教堂里，用我们的普通数码相机很难拍到清晰的像片，如果用了闪光灯，像片的质量更糟糕。

This was the grave of Kolumbus, who discovered America in 1492.

这是1492年发现美洲第一人哥伦布的棺材。

Sevilla Cathedral has many small chapels on the side parts, which are also a fine piece of art.

塞尔维亚大教堂边角处有许多小礼拜堂，每个都是件精美的艺术品。

In the treasure room we found this beautiful crown.

在珍藏室里，我们发现了一顶非常漂亮的王冠。

After the cathedral we visited the old palace, the "Reales Alcazares".

Though it has been built 800 years ago, it is still so beautiful!

The park in the palace.

Because the summer in southern Spain is so hot, there is always a park in a muslim castle in south Spain.

由于西班牙南部的夏季非常炎热，所以穆斯林城堡里都会有公园。

There you can find nice architecture, beautiful flowers, trees which are giving shadow and some fountains with cooling water.

It felt so nice to walk in this cool and quiet park at such a hot day!

Walking out from the palace, we could find the bell tower behind us.

走出王宫，我们的身后便是钟楼。

After visiting the palace, we went to a restaurant to take dinner. I liked the wine with different fruits (orange and apple), which is called "Sangria". It is not strong, because it is mixed with fruit juice, but I still could not drink too much, because I was very easy to get drunk, hehe...

参观完古王宫后，我们到一家餐馆里吃晚餐。我喜欢这里名叫桑格利亚的葡萄酒，这种酒掺拌着不同水果（橘子和苹果），其度数并不高，因为混合着果汁，但我还是不能喝太多，因为我很容易醉的，呵呵……

It was famous Spanish food, Paella! My honey liked it so much, but for me, not so special, and too salty, did not like it.

西班牙名菜帕艾拉海鲜饭！我老公很喜欢吃，但是我觉得没什么特别的，而且太咸了，不喜欢！

They were Spanish puddings, tasted just so so!

西班牙布丁，味道一般般！

After taking the dinner, we took the taxi to visit the splendid "Plaza d'Espagna" (Spanish Square) in Sevilla.

餐后我们打的去参观壮观的西班牙（塞尔维亚）广场。

In the square, we found many new couples coming here to take their wedding pictures. Obviously how popular here was!

They were the guests of the new couple, including the groomsman and bridesmaid. They just came here to take some pictures with the bride and groom.
