Hey there! Yesterday we visited Segovia and here we tell you about it.
Looking from the wall
Segovia is a gorgeous city in the province of Castile and Leon in Spain and there's no denying in that. Its main charm that attracts tourists is its history and architecture. Wanna find out more about Segovia?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Segovia has a wide variety of things to see . While some people may fall for the city's ancient monuments, others may enjoy its delicious pork meat that is popular in restaurants all over the place. In our case, what caught our sight was...
HISTORICAL BUILDINGS
Segovia's history is indeed interesting and very rich. The city's oldest architecture dates to the times of the Roman Empire, where its most famous structure was made. The Aqueduct looks imposing.
Lots of tourists visit the aqueduct every day
The city also won prestige among famous kings like the Catholic kings. During this time, more monuments were built like the Romanian cathedral (which was destroyed), the Gothic cathedral and one of the most important ones: the Alcázar of Segovia ("Segovia Fortress"), which was built to be used as a fortress but was later used as a royal palace. It' currently a museum that can be visited.

And obviously there's a lot more to see, but it's impossible to everything in just one day. We recommended to find a hotel to stay so you can enjoy everythin about this wonderful place.
Peace!
