Segovia is a charming and at the same time overflowing city, whose dreamy city invites you to travel in time in the midst of a vibrant everyday life. Located at the top of a rock at the confluence of the Eresma and Clamores rivers with the imposing silhouette of the Navacerrada mountain range as a backdrop, it boasts of being one of the most photogenic Historical Sites in the country, as well as a World Heritage Site for the UNESCO.

Founded by the Romans more than two thousand years ago, it was the court and residence of kings, witness to the coronation of Isabella the Catholic, the epicenter of a thriving textile industry in the Middle Ages and one of the most important Jewish quarters on the Iberian Peninsula.

From that splendid past a splendid heritage legacy has come to our days that covers all periods and styles, making Segovia a universal city.

The square where the impressive Aqueduct stands is the meeting point par excellence and one of the busiest. The imposing Roman construction dated to the beginning of the 2nd century AD. C. is a masterful work of engineering composed of more than twenty thousand stone blocks fitted together without any cement in a perfect balance of forces.

From here they begin a pleasant journey through one of the pedestrian arteries of the city and, on the way to the Plaza de Juan Bravo, it is essential to stop to contemplate the Casa de los Picos. Built at the end of the 15th century as a fort-house, it attracts attention for its façade with six hundred and seventeen granite peaks and its Renaissance patio.

A few meters further on, the Plaza de Juan Bravo opens, undoubtedly one of the most beautiful and popular in the city. This space, also known as Plaza de las Sirenas, is flanked by the Lozoya tower, by the palace occupied in the 15th century by the future heir to the throne of Castile Enrique IV and by the Romanesque church of San Martín, one of the best exponents of Segovian religious architecture of the time.

In the midst of a vibrant commercial activity, you reach the Plaza Mayor, a splendid urban setting with a homogeneous appearance overlooking the apse of the cathedral, the Juan Bravo theater built in 1917 and the church of San Miguel, where queen of Castilla Isabel la Católica on December 13, 1474.

At the end of the rocky breakwater on which Segovia sits stands the impressive silhouette of the Alcázar, the other universal symbol of the city next to the Aqueduct. This castle with the appearance of a fairy tale palace is the result of the transformations carried out by the successive kings who inhabited it since its origins in a 12th century fortification. It was the first residence of the kings of Castile and events took place within its walls that marked the course of history for centuries to come.

From the gardens that precede this jewel of military architecture you have magnificent views of the two meadows that converge at its feet, as well as the pine forest that houses the Jewish cemetery on one side and the Romanesque church of La Vera Cruz and the relevant monastery of The Parral to the other.
