Description
Iconic Toledo's rooftops with the Cathedral tower at the center. A variety of architectural styles and colors render an exciting view of this historical city of many cultures.
The Historic City of Toledo holds a cultural and monumental heritage of several historic civilizations. The city has Roman origins and was then called Toletum. The Romans left a circus and an aqueduct, the Visigoths remains of the city walls, the Emirate of Cordoba the Puerta Vieja de Bisagra, there are Jewish monuments and some outstanding 15-16th century constructions (Cathedral, San Juan de los Reyes, Santa Cruz hospital).
The city is also known for the emergence of a hybrid Mudéjar style, a symbiosis of techniques and ways of understanding architecture resulting from Muslim, Christian and Jewish cultures living side by side. This can be seen in the Santiago del Arrabal and the Puerta del Sol. Toledo is UNESCO World Heritage Site, No. 379.
