Triana is a neighborhood of Seville, located on the west bank of the Guadalquivir River. It is one of the oldest and most typical districts in the city and has a strong cultural identity due to its old traditions.
Triana was historically inhabited by fishermen as well as potters, and in recent decades has become a very popular tourist area, thanks to its many monuments and its picturesque streets. The Plaza de Castilla is the heart of the area, where the beautiful whitewashed houses and cobblestone streets create a typical Andalusian atmosphere.
The Church of Santa Ana is one of the most symbolic monuments in Triana, built in the 17th century. The church has a beautiful façade with two towers, and inside stands the impressive altarpiece of St. Anne. The Teatro Alfeñique, located in the La Cartuja neighborhood, is another of the monuments of Triana, notable for the neoclassical façade and the rich decoration inside.

You can find here large terraces that fill up with people, particularly on summer nights. There is also the Calle Pureza, a pedestrian street full of bars, restaurants, and shops, which is the most popular nightlife spot in the neighborhood.
