Yesterday we went on an excursion to Segovia to see the town and specifically the Roman Aqueduct. It is around 30km and supplies water for the city from the nearby mountains and river. It was made by the Romans solely out of stone, no cement or anything to keep it together. Crazy!
Visited La Iglesia de San Martin.
Catedral de Segovia. The last Gothic cathedral built in Spain.
Alcazar, fortress where the Kings of Castilla y Leon lived.
Protected on three sides because it is on the edge of the city, aka cliff. And there is a moat surrounding it.
Chairs for the King and Queen.
View from the top of the Castile.. 152 steps up a narrow winding stairway. I got a little claustrophobic to say the least.
Looking down on the center where we started.
