Fantastic construction, it impressed me as much as the first time I saw it as a child.

Natural passage between Madrid and Segovia in La Sierra de Guadarrama. Nature in vein!

The Port of Navafría is one of the entrances to the famous Horizontal runway that connects this port with the historic port of Somosierra. The Port of Navafría is located between the municipalities of Lozoya and Navafría. With its 1,773 meters above sea level, it is considered a first-class port in the “Cycling Tour of Spain”. This natural area is made up of a lush oak forest in the lower part and a beautiful pine forest in the upper part.

The Segovia Aqueduct is an impressive architectural structure that dates back to the 1st century AD. C. and was built by the Romans during the occupation of Hispania. Its main function was to supply water to the city of Segovia, transporting it from the mountains to the urban center. The aqueduct carries the waters of the Fuenfría spring, located in the mountains about 17 kilometers from the city, to the center of Segovia. The water is collected in a cistern called El Caserón and then taken through an ashlar canal to a second tower known as Casa de Aguas. After traveling more than 15 km, you arrive at the city. The Segovia Aqueduct is a heraldic symbol of the city and one of the most impressive works that the Romans left in their vast empire. If you ever have the opportunity to visit, I recommend that you do so. It's really amazing! 😊🏛️

The Segovia aqueduct, one of the most emblematic architectural symbols of Spain, was used to transport water from the Guadarrama mountain range to the city. It is a true Roman jewel that deserves to be appreciated from all its angles.

This area is a bird lover's paradise in spring after the wet season rains. The Cantalejo Lagoons are home to many migratory and local birds.
