Plaza de España known in English as Spain Square, is one of the famous sights in Seville. It is located in Maria Luisa Park and was designed by Anibal Gonzalez. It is a good example of the Rennaisance Revival Style in Spanish Architecture. It is the site of the Spanish pavilion from the 1929 exhibition.
