Description
Claiming to be the largest wooden structure in the world, Metropol Parasol is a waffle-like pinnacle construction designed by German architect Jürgen Mayer-Hermann and a popular tourist attraction in Seville.
Part of the redevelopment of Plaza de la Encarnacion, the stunning artwork completed in 2011 has quickly become one of the city’s symbols, creating a striking contrast with Seville’s charming medieval center.
Inspired by the vaults found in the Cathedral of Seville, Metropol Parasol consists of six linked parasols shaped in the form of some huge mushrooms meant to offer shade in Spain’s sunniest city.
Both admired and criticized by the locals of Seville, Metropol Parasol is bold, innovative, and unique, and it definitely turns heads. As a photographer, I loved it !!
