Toledo is situated in the heart of Spain and within driving access of Madrid, which is under 80 kilometres away. Home to a melting pot of historical cultures, including Muslim, Hebrew and Christian, tourists can enjoy this rich heritage in the form of the various churches, mosques and synagogues that are dotted around the city. Particularly of note are the Puera de Bisagra and the Bridge of San Martin. The Cathedral is another highpoint, as are the Zocodover Square and the Alcazar Castle.
Additionally, the Museums of Santa Cruz and Victorio Macho are well worth a look for history lovers. The Museum of El Greco is one of the most important venues to visiting work by Cretan artists in the whole city. With this rich history and the enviable scenic views on offer just by walking around the town, visitors are recommended to hire a car to make their stay at the ‘Rome of Spain’ even more relaxing. |
