TOLEDO: This historic center is not in the Madrid Province but in Central Spain. However, a day excursion is available from Madrid & I was lucky enough to sign up on one of those tour to see & experience the rich history of this old city which was a capital in the 6th century (that of Visigoths). In the middle age, this wonderful city is the melting pot of Christian, Muslim & Jewish cultures. Toledo is best explored on foot and walking around the medieval buildings & Jewish quarters gave me a very good idea about what's it like in the medieval times.

TOLEDO CATHEDRAL: Built on the site of a 7th century church the cathedral began work in 1226 & was only completed in 1493. Due to this, mixture of styles (French Gothic on the exterior & Spanish decorative on the interior) can be found here.

Madrid is an elegant city that you do great justice. Loved the Prado too. It might be my favourite art gallery. |
