타호강이 톨레도 주변을 구불구불 흐르는 모습

The large archway in the middle of the building is the Arco de la Sangre (Arch of Blood).

The Bisagra Gate is one of Toledo's most iconic monuments and a monumental entrance to its historic center. Muslim Origin: The original gate, known as the Old Bisagra Gate or Bab al-Saqra ("Sacred Gate"), was built in the 9th century during Islamic rule. Renaissance Reconstruction: In the 16th century, under the reigns of Charles V and Philip II, the New Bisagra Gate was built, the gate that remains today. Construction began around 1540 and was completed in 1576. Notable Architects: Alonso de Covarrubias, Nicolás de Vergara the Elder, Juan de Benavides, Eugenio Sánchez, among others, participated.

Toledo Cathedral, also known as the Primate Cathedral of Spain, is one of the masterpieces of Gothic art in Europe and a symbol of the city. Its construction began in 1226 during the reign of Ferdinand III and lasted for more than two centuries. It is dedicated to Saint Mary and stands on the site of an old mosque, which in turn was built on the site of a Visigothic church.

The Alcántara Bridge is one of Toledo's most iconic monuments, with a history dating back to Roman times and an architecture that has evolved over the centuries. Originally built by the Romans in the 3rd century AD, as part of the network of roads that connected the Empire. Its name comes from the Arabic "al-qanṭarah," meaning "the bridge," given by the Muslims after its reconstruction in the 10th century.

Its current name comes from the fact that the image of Christ of the Blood is hidden above this horseshoe arch, in a small, usually closed chapel visible from Plaza de Zocodover. The image comes from an old brotherhood founded during the reign of Sancho III, but the chapel wasn't created until the reign of Henry IV. This unusual location follows the Arab custom of placing an oratory above some gates and arches to ensure safe travel for anyone leaving the city and crossing the gate.

Mandatory visit point in Toledo. The square is beautifully illumimated in the evening. It is surrounded mainly by the City Hall and the Saint Maria de Toledo Cathedral. Cathedral visit is also a strong point. Full of art (El Greco is well represented) and heavy deco in a classic Gothic architecture.

The Cathedral is the most grandiose and monumental building in the city. It is a Gothic cathedral started in the 13th century, although over the centuries that its construction lasted it has Renaissance, Baroque and Neoclassical elements. In addition, it contains very important works of art such as the Custodia for the Corpus Christi procession, the Baroque Transparente made by Narciso Tomé and the Expolio by the painter El Greco. Its sacristy houses an impressive treasure trove of works of art. It has 19 works by El Greco alone, but to these we must add others by painters such as Goya, Caravaggio, Titian, Van Dick, Goya, Morales, Orrente or Tristan. Also noteworthy are the Chapter House, the chapel of San Ildefonso, the sacristy, the chapel of Reyes Nuevos, the choir, the cloister... Therefore it is a monument that must be visited, to discover all the treasures it holds within.
