My Home City 1

I would like to speak about 2 the city where I was born 46 years ago. It is named Sevilla, and it is situated in the south of Spain. 3 If you haven't been here, you should take advantage of any chance of visiting it, because it is worth the time 4 and you will not regret spending some time walking around this beautiful city.

To start with, I would like to say that Seville is famous for both its Holy Week and April's Fair. 5

The Holy Week is not only a religious event, but also a touristic attraction for a vast amount of visitors. 6 During the week the city is traversed by several spectacular religious processions that represent various episodes of Christ's passion. 7

Regarding April's Fair, it can be argued that it 8 is a colourful event where men and women wear traditional clothes. In addition, horse owners perform a show the called horse's walk. 9 They ride their horses through the fair for the pleasure of those who are watching them.

Another feature of the city is the Santa Cruz neighbourhood. Situated in the historical centre of the town 10 it is a place where you can walk around between old buildings and 11 along narrow streets. One of the most noticeable peculiarities, during the springtime, 12 is that you can smell the orange blossoms while you enjoy the shade provided by the narrow streets.

In my opinion, anyone who decides to spend some time in this city will leave with an enduring and terrific impression.
