Toledo is a Spanish city considered as World Heritage City by UNESCO. A city full of history. In XIII century, the city became one of the few places in Spain where lived Moorish, Christians and Jews in harmony, so the city has special characteristics that still can be seen when you visit the city and contemplate the remains of the churches, synagogues and mosques built during that period.
During the Roman occupation Toledo became a fortified city on the route of the Tajo River, around the city, and its strategic location on the peninsula, become in the most important political, economic and cultural center of Spain. The Visigoths named it as the capital and also played an important role during the Muslim occupation. When the Christians reconquered Toledo, became the official residence of the Kings of Castilla until XVI century.
The most famous monuments are the Cathedral, Puerta de Bisagra, the Alcázar, the Monastery of San Juan de los Reyes, the Synagogues of Santa MarÃa la Blanca and Tránsito, the Mosque of Cristo de la Luz…
But Toledo is much more. Its labyrinthine streets, its panoramic views, churches and monasteries, Roman, hammam and Jews baths… are just some of the lesser known treasures of Toledo…
…And also its nightlife.
