The hotel is a lazy 15 minutes walk to the Alcazar, an enclosure of palaces and gardens, and we took an even lazier hour to get there. The Moorish palaces, gardens and courtyards were on the scale and grandeur of the Alhambra in Granada and we enjoyed our few hours rambling, sitting, rambling, sitting.
Sharon has an app on her phone called Map My Ride http://www.mapmyride.com and we have had it on occasionally to track where and how far we have walked for the day. She had a link to its website the other day that showed people walking/riding routes in the shape of bicycles, guitars and the like to win prizes. Our routes all look like bowls of spaghetti.
The old markets in Seville were knocked down years ago and new ones built in their place in Plaza Royal. This structure was built above it and the archaeological dig of the old markets is below the ground floor. Remarkable.
