The Aqueduct
When you first see it, you won’t believe your eyes. It was built by the Romans 2000 years ago and is one of the best preserved elevated Roman aqueducts in the world. They built it without cement or mortar, just balancing granite blocks. You can see why its considered one of the Romans most impressive works of engineering.
The Castle
The Alcazar of Segovia looks like its from a fairytale. In fact, its rumored to be the inspiration to Cinderella’s Castle at Disney World. Built on a rocky cliff on the edge of town, the sheer drops made my stomach a little queasy. Don’t miss it.
Toledo
The ancient city of Toledo is the heart and soul of Spain. You will not stop taking pictures.
Views from below
Sure there are sights to see in Toledo like the Cathedral and the El Greco museum but the most memorable part of Toledo are the winding narrow cobblestone streets. We loved being there in February because the streets were free of tourists making them even more photogenic.
Views from above
The views from above are just as good. We climbed the bell tower at the church of Iglesia San Idelfonso and snapped some arial shots of Toledo (and, of course, a selfie of an arial shot of Toledo).
Parador de Toledo
Here is some advice given to me by my sister in law and now I’m passing it along to you: GO TO THE PARADOR DE TOLEDO. She went there for lunch, we went for sunset. The Parador is a luxurious state run hotel, just a quick cab ride up in the hills overlooking Toledo. Have a drink on the patio and let the view sink in. Its breath taking. You will not want to leave.
We did leave. Once it got dark we took a cab back to the train station, then back to Madrid for dinner.
