Among all the museums of Seville, this is the oddity. It has been inaugurated the 17th of October of 1999 in order to make people know the world of horse carriage. It would surprise you to see how well staged are the carriages in different historical periods. I hasn't always been for turists actually. Moreover, nothing more than to see the convent of the XVI century in which it is located, is worth visiting this unique museum.

A few meters from the Monastery of La Cartuja, we find one of the emblems of the Universal Exhibition of 1992, the Pavilion of Navigation. From here started the journey that circumnavigated the world for the first time, important geographical discoveries were obtained, the trade route was established between three continents... All the more so that this river flowing a few meters from the Pavilion, reaches the Atlantic, hence there are many people who dare to cross its waters by kayak or other watercraft. It is a perfect activity for the whole family, since it's especially made for children.
