Segovia

Yesterday, Paul and I travelled to the beautiful village of Segovia. Like Toledo, Segovia is a medieval town with countless historical buildings and churches. Segovia's main attraction is the aqueduct, which was built around the thirteenth century by the Romans. It's a breathtaking structure - a series of tall arches made from large pieces of granite. We also toured the Castle of Segovia. From the outside it looked like a castle in a Disney movie! The inside was equally impressive with its intricate ceilings, original artwork, large stained glass windows and display of medieval weaponry.
