Segovia was a "must see" for me because of the famous Roman Aqueduct. I didn't expect it to be such a neat and interesting town with its Cathedral and Castle. Another great day trip from Madrid!
The extremely well preserved alcazar (castle) in Segovia. |
The view across the countryside from the Segovia castle walls. A river provided extra protection from attack. Notice how yellow/brown the countryside is at the end of the hot and dry Spanish Summer. |
The impressive Segovia Cathedral sits imposingly on a hill. |
The view through one of the arches of the Roman aqueduct in Segovia. Note again the distinctive colour of the countryside and the way the town ends suddenly. |
The wonderful Segovia Roman aqueduct itself. |
The amazing tower of a church on the path from the Aqueduct to the Cathedral in Segovia. The tower seems to have Visigothic, Moorish and later Christian additions. |
