Sightseeing Overview
Seville is a relatively compact city with most of its major sights within walking distance. The cathedral is a useful central landmark and a slow climb up the bell tower (La Giralda) to take in the view is highly recommended for getting your bearings.
From the cathedral, the labyrinth of narrow walkways and charming patios of the old Santa Cruz quarter are just a few steps away. In the opposite direction, it's an easy stroll to the grandeur of the Torre del Oro and Maestranza bullring in the Arenal quarter.
Even crossing the river to Triana is no great hardship, particularly if you're spurred on by the thought of a riverside drink/cold beer at one of several terrace-bars located along Calle Betis.
The only major sights where public transport might be a better idea than tired feet are the Isla Magica and the old city walls in La Macarena quarter.
