a beautiful wooden structure that has become a Sevilla landmark. It has shops below.
It is a five-story wooden building designed by Jurgen Meyer and completed in 2011, located in Plaza de la Encarnacion in the old city of Seville, Spain. The charm of this space is that the sunset is amazing! Haha
The Metropolitan Parasol has four floors. The underground floor exhibits Roman and Moorish ruins found here. The first floor is the central market. You can also go to the top for 3 euros. The Metropolitan Parasol is very huge and it is impossible to take a full picture.
Seville City Umbrella ~The world's largest wooden frame architect is the German Yuergen & Meyer & Herman prototype, which imitates the wooden honeycomb roof of the Mediterranean pine (some say mushroom) that sticks together for nearly 5,000 square meters. It does provide a huge umbrella for the residents of the small city, but the focus is not just on the elegant shape of the building's roof circling sightseeing steps. Dow gives you a panoramic view of Seville
Metropol Parasol is a wooden building in Seville, Spain, located in the Plaza de la Incarnation in the old town, about a 15-minute walk from the Royal Palace and the Cathedral in the center of Seville's old town. Metropol Parasol was designed by German architect Jurgen Meyer-Hermann and completed in April 2011. It is 150 meters by 70 meters and about 26 meters high, and is known as the world's largest wooden building.
The City umbrella is a famous building in Villa. It's all-wood structure. Like the city spirit, it's more beautiful in the night. The local people also call it the big mushroom, which can climb up and overlook the city scenery. It's also a famous commercial street around here. It's very busy and you can take a look around.
Impressive wooden structure with a mushroom-shaped dome. One drink is included in the ticket, in the restaurant downstairs or in the shopping area upstairs. We bought two bottles of sparkling wine for 4 euros and sat outside overlooking the roof of the building, with Roman ruins underneath the mushrooms. Also a good place to meet friends and walk around.
The shape of the building is somewhat inconsistent with the quaint surroundings, but the large area of shadow created by the building must have provided citizens with an excellent place to escape the hot summer in southern Spain. Climbing up from the parasol to look far into the distance is another way to appreciate the beauty of this city, but you have to buy a ticket to reach the top, so whether it is worth it is a matter of opinion.
