Toledo: A Melting Pot of Three Cultures

Centuries after the rule of different Empires, Toledo still stands majestically on a craggy outcrop of rock, overlooking the whole surrounding area.  This city prides itself on its rich history and invaluable cultural heritage that long endure: Jewish synagogues, fine Moorish mosques and Spain’s greatest Gothic cathedrals.  Just a full day of travel, we felt like we have been transported to medieval Spain.  Once an ancient capital of Castille, once being a melting pot of religious coexistence, no wonder here goes a Spanish saying of this fairy-like city: “Until you have seen Toledo, you have not seen Spain”.
