Alcazar Garden
Alcazar Garden Review
The gardens surrounding the Alcazar Castle in Seville, Spain, inspired the landscaping here; you'll feel like royalty resting on the benches by the exquisitely tiled fountains. The flower beds are ever-changing horticultural exhibits featuring more than 7,000 annuals for a nearly perpetual bloom. A replica of a garden created in 1935 by San Diego architect Richard Requa, the garden is open year-round offering a changing color palette.
