Travel Snippets in Spain | β€ Flamenco Dance Museum
π Picking up from where we left off Granada π Seville How could one visit Seville without watching a flamenco dance performance? π€ Todayβs only sightseeing activity is the Flamenco Museum, where I booked a combo ticket for the tour + performance π« The service at the museum is excellent! They guide each guest with an introduction to the museum before letting them explore on their own. π The museum has four floors: the first floor is a gift shop and a courtyard theater, where the performance will be held at night; the second floor has interactive exhibits explaining the origin, types, and development of flamenco dance, with Chinese translations; the third floor is a gallery showcasing artworks; and the basement is a historical site, also the VIP performance area. π The total visit time is less than an hour. We lined up at 6:15 PM for the 7:00 PM performance and scored seats in the center of the first row! π The show featured three dancers, two singers, and one guitarist. There were two female and one male dancer, including a young Asian girl who was stunning and danced beautifully. I couldnβt take my eyes off her. Later, during her solo, she had a long tail skirt, a large shawl, a folding fan, and castanets, with so many variations and visually appealing. Immersive and up-close viewing of flamenco dance, the passionate and unrestrained attitude is truly infectious, super touching! (You can head to the bar before the show starts for a glass of sangria πΉ, a slight buzz enhances the show experience~ After the performance, we go the gift shop, which was packed with souvenirs that Europeans were buying in bulk. π΄ In the evening, we went to Alfalfa8 for fried octopus, delicious! Crispy on the outside and tender yet chewy on the inside, with great flavor. The restaurant happened to offer small portions, so we ordered 230g, perfect for two people. We also tried the tuna, which was seared, quite tasty. And there was a dish of pork cheek, loaded with cheese, a bit rich. We strolled back to the hotel at a leisurely pace, loving these little alleys, this is what Europe looks like in my mind. We passed by a gelato shop, bought yogurt and lemon flavors, and sat on the side of the road, enjoying the breeze and eating ice cream π¦, watching the lively Spanish streets at 11 PM. π Tips for the Flamenco Museum Opening hours: Museum: 11:00 AM - 6:00 PM Performances: 5:00 PM, 7:00 PM, 8:45 PM VIP room performance: 7:00 PM Ticket prices π«: Museum only: 10 euros Performance only: 25 euros Tour + Performance: 29 euros VIP room performance: 37 euros Official website: www.museoflamenco.com Itβs recommended to book online in advance as performance tickets sell out quickly.
