Experience the best of Toledo

Toledo is a hilltop city in central Spain, ringed by the River Tagus, where Christian, Jewish and Muslim monuments stand side by side.

Toledo sits on a rocky hill almost encircled by a bend of the Tagus river, its skyline crowned by the Alcázar fortress and the Gothic cathedral. Toledo was the seat of the Spanish court until 1561, and it is known as the city of three cultures, with churches, synagogues and mosques from the Christian, Jewish and Muslim past. The historic centre is a World Heritage Site, a tangle of steep lanes.

The cathedral holds paintings and a carved choir, the Synagogue of Santa María la Blanca has horseshoe arches, and the Mosque of Cristo de la Luz is a tenth-century building. In the church of Santo Tomé hangs El Greco's The Burial of the Count of Orgaz, and the painter's adopted city is full of his work. Madrid is about seventy kilometres to the north, and the royal palace and gardens of Aranjuez and the windmills of La Mancha at Consuegra are within easy reach.

Toledo is known for its marzipan, a sweet tradition of its convents, and for stews of partridge or game, and carcamusas, a pork and tomato stew. Manchego cheese and wines of La Mancha are close at hand. The city's workshops make damascene, black steel inlaid with gold thread, and swords. Summers can be very hot, and spring and autumn are comfortable.
