Iconic wooden structure covering a large concourse. This is an amazing structure and definitely one-of-a-kind in the world. The Metropol Parasol, commonly known as Las Setas, is a hideous wooden structure bound together by concrete, metal supports and an aerial walkway that takes the form of 6 giant mushrooms providing shade for Plaza de la Encarnacion in central Seville. There are 3 levels incorporating an antiquarian featuring Roman ruins, bars and restaurants, a marketplace and the viewing platform and walkway on the top floor.
Standing within the Plaza DE la Encarnación is Metropol sunshade, additionally referred to as the 'mushrooms of Seville' ('Setas DE Sevilla'). This building, that opened in 2011, was designed by the German creator Jürgen Mayer who at World Health Organization won a style competition to renew the square. It is the most important picket construction within the world (150 x seventy meters and twenty-six meters in height). Perched above the Roman ruins, this modernist structure is incredible because of its contrast with all the old historical buildings in the area and also because of the beautiful views. An amazing huge wooden structure within a huge square, it was made for giving plenty of shade and its upper level is accessible by a wide stair or escalator. On the large upper plaza, groups meet for various activities. It’s a large interlaced wooden structure with a market and museum below. Dramatically casting itself across this part of the city, like some kind of alien spacecraft, it is best at night. You can walk around the top for 3 Euros and enjoy views across the city with the many illuminated churches.
