Casco Historico de Toledo

Reviewed By duomo2 - Taunton, United Kingdom

Beautiful city, definitely worth a day trip from Madrid, the train was only half an hour. Everything is so well preserved and really clean, it was like an authentic theme park, if that makes sense, in that you are completely transported to a different world. Lots of narrow winding streets and beautiful buildings, absolutely stunning.

Estacion del Ferrocarril

Reviewed By plspoon - Perth, Australia

This building is amazing and well worth spending a little extra time while waiting for your train to have a good look at it. The floor and wall tiles are exquisite and the ticket counters and even the ceiling. The outside is also very "Toledo". The small restaurant was not bad either.

Puerta de Bisagra

Reviewed By chait1788 - Cambridge, Canada

The gate is the entryway to the old town of Toledo. On a regular day, it would a regular entrance archway, no doubt historically significant. We visited closer to christmas and hence the decor around the gate, made it beautiful. Was worth the visit. Also very close to the tourist centre and a good spot to catch the bus to Mirador del valle viewpoint.

San Martin Bridge

Reviewed By Kelleygirl2 - Sarasota, United States

I slowly followed the progression of our group crossing the medieval Puente de San Martin or Bridge of San Martin, that spanned the Tagus River, to find our bus. I didn't want to rush this experience. The bridge was constructed in the late 14th century by archbishop Pedro Tenorio to provide access to the town of Toledo from the west. I took my time grabbing as many last shots to best remember this ancient multicultural hilltop city.

Puerta del Sol

Reviewed By G5968MBmichaels - Springfield, United States

Perhaps my favorite single structure in the city, competing with the other gates and bridges associated with the concentric walls and the cobblestone roads of the old city. Well light every night and situated as a lookout toward the North of the city with a view of the Tagus river and the humble city sector formerly know for pottery and the city access to the Tagus river bed.

Alcantara Bridge

Reviewed By chait1788 - Cambridge, Canada

The bridge is the entrance to the old town of Toledo. Views from the bridge are beautiful, the trail under the bridge is amazing, the roman arch, the decor on the bridge, the lights illuminate the bridge at night - all these things make the bridge a must visit spot. Visited in morning and after sunset, great spot to take photos at either time, morning is probably better.

Muralla de Toledo

Reviewed By Q7840EUdanl - Bunbury, Australia

The City Walls of Toledo may not be as grand as those of Avila but, I guess, that is a subjective notion. The first walls were constructed by the Romans, some remnants still exist. The Visigoths rebuilt the walls from the ruins of the old Roman and also tripled the size. The Arabs further enlarged the walls when in power and after the Christian reconquest, they were further enlarged and new gates added. See the Puerta de Bisagra Nueva dating to 1559, Puerta del Cambrón dating to 1576 and Puerta del Sol. Fascinating.
