Benacazón is a beautiful village of Seville
in the fertile region of the Aljarafe, in which the
traveller will find as many hermitages and chapels
as he might wish.
The route should begin with the hermitage of Gelo,
a work of art of Mudejar origin, and then a visit
to the ruins of the hermitage of Castilleja de Talhara,
whose façade is one if the most interesting
of Mudejar Seville, and the chapels of La Soledad,
La Veracruz, Cortijo de la Torre de Martín
Cerón and the parish church of Nuestra Señora
de las Nieves. An ideal time to visit these jewels
of religious architecture might be in June when Benacazón
decorates its municipal park to welcome beautiful
specimens of Andalusia horses that participate each
year in the Equestrian Art Exhibition.
In August this village holds the fiestas of Las
Nieves and if you pass along its streets you should
be careful to avoid bumping into the traditional Flaming
bull fireworks displays.
