I was debating whether to go or not....

Toledo, where I hesitated whether to go or not ➖ A magical moment 💫 A city where the ancient and modern come together, a place where you can see the charm of Toledo at a glance, I visited the observatory! 🏰🌇 There's even a mini train! We took a taxi ㅎ ㅎ We took a taxi to the hotel and then walked around and looked around. Here, I could feel the beauty that seemed to transcend time along with the enchanting city view. Every moment unfolded like a scene from a fairy tale.... I also saw old bridges. I went there right around sunset, so I saw the amazing view from the sun setting to the night when it got dark. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ "The old town unfolded before my eyes. I want to keep it forever. Dada! 📸💫" ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ Toledo, with its river flowing around the town, is incredibly charming. There are always rivers! ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #Toledo #Travel #Scenery #Observatory #SpainTravel #TravelAddict #Travelstagram #TravelRecord #LifeShot #Memories #Mirrorless

Stay at Spain’s medieval monastery hotel: Pardor de Toledo

#parador is a brand of Spanish state-owned hotels. Most of them are located in renovated ruins such as castles, monasteries, and manors. It retains the aesthetics of ancient buildings and incorporates modern classical low-luxury. It has an excellent location. The best choice to experience the Spanish Empire style in the Middle Ages. This time I stayed in the ancient city #toledo. It is a condescending ancient city with a moat surrounding it. Under the sunset, it looks majestic and simple. The hotel is on a high ground outside the moat, overlooking the entire ancient city of Toledo, and the view is quite vast. The hotel is a converted monastery and is made of carved bricks and stones. It maintains the unique earthy color of the ancient city and has mottled historical traces. The interior of the hall is in European elegant style, with portraits of kings from past dynasties hanging on the walls, and indispensably decorated with crystal lamps and candlesticks. The room layout is elegant and simple, but the details are in place. The bed is moderately soft and hard, making it easy to sleep. There is a walk-out terrace in the room with a good view of the swimming pool. As for the room price, a double room including breakfast is about NT$6,000. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor settings. When dining outdoors, you can enjoy the night view of the entire ancient city, coupled with the gentle breeze and night scenery, it is very enjoyable! Breakfast is also a sumptuous European buffet, with a variety of fruits and breads. Different from modern chain hotels, come to a Spanish town to experience a parador and stay in a medieval ruins! #paradordetoledo# #ParadordeToledo #span #toledo #parador

Great Food in Qántara, Toledo

Found this local place by accident.The fried squid and pork ribs were delicious! The bartender recommended fantastic local beers for us. Great experience here! We enjoyed it! Qantara bar is ideally situated 10 mins from train station and a 15 min walk into the old town. I think stopping by Quantara is a must when you are traveling Toledo. #toledo #deliciousfood #spain_vacations

A Day in Toledo

Toledo is a recommended day-trip destination for those who go to Madrid. It’s only an hour-train away from Atocha station in central Madrid and there are trains almost every hour. The train ticket can be under €20 depending what class you would like to sit. If you plan to walk around the ancient city, remember to bring your hat/ umbrella / sunscreen if you’re worried about getting freckles or tanned because there is not much shade or cover in the city unless you stay indoor. I did not have anything and walked under the sun for 6 hours… and my skin needs a lot of first-aid afterwards. Recommended to have a walking tour both in the centre where all the shops are and also up the hills and lookouts. Also there are a few museums if you fancy learning more about the local cultures. Some local musicians will play traditional Toledo music at the central plaza outside the McDonald’s there at noon if you happen to be there around that time. #celebratewithtrip #toledo #ancientcity

The brilliance of Toledo, Spain

#fallingforfall #bucketlistreboot #tripblazers #toledo #spain On my recent trip to Central and Western Europe, I visited Toledo, Spain, for the first time! Located in Central Spain, Toledo is a medieval city built atop a hill. What I found most stunning about this city was the medieval Moorish/Arabic architecture. Fun fact, the majority of Spain, especially the central and southern parts, were once conquered by the Muslim Moors for hundreds of years! Check out the photos to see stunning sceneries of Toledo in the beginning of fall. Guide to visiting Alcázar de Toledo ⬇️ Getting There: 🚝 Take the Railway to Toledo (~20 min walk) 🚗 Private car or tour hire. Ride sharing services do not operate in Toledo! Attractions: Alcázar de Toledo, Army Museum, Regional Library. Museum admission at €5, free on Sundays. Hotels: Many hotels, inns and lodges in the vicinity. Food & Restaurants - The cafe at the top of the library offers great views of the area. Many other affordable food options as well. Shopping - The museum's gift shop only accepts cash! Otherwise, many other souvenir shops nearby too.

Inside The Primate Cathedral of Saint Mary

#createwithtrip I do recommend you plan your visit to Toledo Cathedral first thing in the morning. It gets extremely busy not only in summer and during weekends but mostly because Toledo is a popular day trip destination from Madrid. There are so many church in here. Inside it, you will have a good look at this beautiful work of art. When we were there it was almost empty, so we had the place to ourselves. We could pray and feel so peaceful. Not a must see but worth it if you are in the area.There were barely any other tourists there, the staff were very nice, and the church itself was very beautiful. All of the signs were in Spanish. #church #spaintravel #toledo

pizza lovers get closer to COMES PIZZERIA☺

it's location is in a hidden alley way. but when you Comes in... wow.. the interesting place with a nice vibe. The staff are super friendly and also helpful with checking for allergens. They speak English and Spanish, very friendly and service it's good.the colorful space for pizzas, burgers, tapas & burritos, with a vegetarian selection also. the pizza was very fantastic that it’s thin crust with a solid undercarriage. They had some locally made liquors which seems interesting to try. I had a home made lemonade with mint and ginger which was really refreshing after a long walk under the heat of Toledo. I would Comes Here again if there any chance visiting toledo again.#happytrip #foodie #pizzalover #toledo #spaintravel

Toledo old Town with Tajo River - Spain

As you arrive in Toledo, one of the first sights you’ll notice is the winding El Rio Tajo, Spanish for the Tagus River, which surrounds the city on three sides—much like a moat would surround an ancient castle. It is the longest river in the Iberian Peninsula, and although it winds through parts of Spain and Portugal, Toledo is the largest Spanish city on its banks. The natural beauty of the meandering banks of the Tagus, coupled with the important built heritage, has given an enduring#toledo character to Toledo’s landscape. The course of the Tagus takes it through very few cities in Spain, a reflection of the rugged mountainous terrain and arid soil of the areas through which it flows#travelinspiration #riverside #spaintravel #toledo

Probably the best place the see almost all the town or #toledo is the road just 1km southern of the center. Toledo is the old capital of the kingdom of #spain and it is located on a short drive from the nowadays capital - Madrid. It is an #ancient town and is really authentical and beautiful place that everyone who goes to the area should visit. I really enjoyed my walk around the town, but the best experience for me was this view in just 1km away. #happynewyear
