The Buhaira Palace and its gardens: an oasis of Arab heritage A visit to the Buhaira Palace and gardens will take us back to a past of Arab splendor that deserves to be known.The Buhaira gardens and the Palace that gives it its name may be overlooked by tourists, but Sevillians should know more than just locating them on the map. It is not difficult to recognize that it is not one of the most touristic places in Seville or one of its essential monuments. However, a visit to the Buhaira Palace and gardens will take us back to a past of Arab splendor that deserves to be known. Thank you for watching At the time of Muslim occupation, under the reign of Al-Motamid, it was decided to drain a lagoon that occupied the area we know today as Buhaira ("al-buhaira", by the way, means "lagoon"). Thanks to three botanists - Ibn-Bassal, Abu I-Jair and Ibn Hayay - it will become a recreation area.
