Those visiting Sevilla for the first time might think that an alien spacecraft just landed when they see the Metropol Parasol for the first time. Right next to the historic city centre of Sevilla, this huge architectural structure looks so strange, that an alien spacecraft seems like a reasonable explanation.
The real story is a little less exciting: When the city started construction on a huge underground parking lot, they discovered some ancient Roman ruins, so the construction was frozen and after some years, they decided to open an underground museum and build Metropol Parasol on top of it.
