Welcome to Sanlúcar de Barrameda
Sanlúcar is one of those lesser-known Andalucian towns that pleasantly surprise. Firstly, there’s the gastronomy: Sanlúcar cooks up some of the region's best seafood on a hallowed waterside strip called Bajo de Guía. Secondly, Sanlúcar's unique location at the northern tip of the esteemed Sherry Triangle enables its earthy bodegas, nestled in the somnolent, monument-strewn old town, to produce the much-admired one-of-a-kind manzanilla. Thirdly, plonked at the mouth of the Río Guadalquivir estuary, Sanlúcar provides a quieter, less touristed entry point into the ethereal Parque Nacional de Doñana than the more popular western access points in Huelva province.

Tablao Flamenco Pura Esencia
En la Calle Betis en el Barrio de Triana, podrás disfrutar de un espectáculo de 1 hora de duración en un un espacio con sillas y mesas, donde podrás disfrutar el show mientras te bebes un vino de Sanlucar de Barrameda, la Manzanilla. El espectáculo comienza a las 20h por lo que te recomendamos llegar unos 25 minutos antes. La manera más fácil de llegar, es andando desde la Plaza del Altozano o de la Plaza Cuba. Está muy cerca de la Catedral de Sevilla, y puedes dar un paseo observando toda la arquitectura sevillana, para terminar el día con un buen espectáculo Flamenco.En el escenario te encontraás un Guitarrista, un cantaor y una bailaora, los cuales improvisarán -como se hace en el flamenco- dentro de una estructura establecida que tiene cada ritmo que ellos escojan antes de salir. En el flamenco cada ritmo tiene una estructura que puede ser: bloque de cante, bloque de zapateado, bloque de frase melódica en la guitarra, etc. Y lo intersante es cómo se van cerrando cada bloque a través de códigos musicales o de baile en el que los intérpretes van jugando con sus compañeros de escena para pasar de un bloque a otro.Ven a llenarte de la magia del flamenco!
