#train #100 ways to travel Travel freely in Spain and Portugal and visit the historic city #Toledo on the outskirts of Madrid, Spain. It is one of the oldest cities in Europe and a cultural town listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. It takes about 30 minutes to get from Madrid Atocha Train Station to Toledo Station, but you still have to walk 20 minutes to the old town, or take a taxi. Toledo was once the capital of the Kingdom of Spain. The castle is towering and upright, overlooking the entire city and moat. It has the imposing manner of dominating the world! Because it occupies a vast area, there are not only height differences, but also the best way to see the entire town and the other side of the moat is to take the Toledo Train Vision Zocotren. The adult ticket is €6.50, and you can watch the sunset at 18:30 on the last flight. It is best to make an appointment to buy tickets in advance. Starting from the main square of Zocodover, the sightseeing train will take you around the main attractions of Toledo, giving you a panoramic view of everything in and outside the city. The car is also equipped with a headset tour guide, which actually has a Chinese audio introduction, which is so considerate! The whole trip takes about 45 minutes. When the train leaves the city and goes around to Mirador Toledo, a hill across the moat, the driver will stop for 5 minutes and let you take a photo with the ancient city of Toledo. It is very spectacular and brings you to the European Middle Ages. Visually, I highly recommend this itinerary! The ancient town of Toledo usually arranges a day trip and returns to Madrid that night. However, in order to experience the charm of the Spanish state-run hotel Parador de Toledo, it is recommended to stay for one night. #西PortugueseFreeTravel #Spain #Toledo #Train #100 Ways to Travel #span #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

Visiting the elegant and magnificent Toledo Cathedral is the highlight of your trip to Toledo. It was built in the 13th century and has lasted for 600 years.

Toledo is an important city in Spanish history and a cultural heritage site! It takes about 30 minutes by AVE (bullet train) from Madrid's Atocha Station. Historically, this place has been under the control of various powers, so it is a city where the cultures of three religions, Christianity, Islam, and Judaism, coexist, and it was the capital of the former Visigothic Kingdom. The view of Toledo's old town across the Tagus River is still burned into my memory 🥹 It is such an attractive city that there is a proverb that says, "If you only have one day in Spain, don't hesitate to go to Toledo." #overseastravel #toledo #triptoSpain #triptoEurope

There is a hidden gem outside of Madrid which is just less than an hour train ride! And that place is called Toledo! Why is Toledo City Popular? Toledo, is a Primeval Spanish City. It is tagged as the “City of Three Cultures”. Here, you can distinguish the UNESCO World Heritage Site of their ancient Arab, Jewish and Christian pillars taking you back in time making it a engrossing place to roam around. How to get there from Madrid? Answer: I suggest to take the high-speed train from Atocha Station (Madrid’s Main Station). Trains depart every hour or half hour in the morning, then every hour in the evening. The earliest schedule to depart is at 6:50 in the morning, and the travel time takes about 30 minutes. The ticket costs about 14 Euros. Must See Attractions for FREE: Mirador del Valle- a valley viewpoint, admission is free! You can spend hours marveling at the gorgeous panoramic view of the City!

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

Once you step on this side of the Spanish land, you feel like you have returned to medieval time - there are old buildings, fortresses, decoration and souvenirs of armours, swords and ancient calligraphy, and a place to show a movie of how the town developed over the years. It’s quiet and pleasant. Good escape from the busy city centre! #walkingtour #oldtown #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.

I would Comes Here again if there any chance visiting toledo again.#happytrip #foodie #pizzalover #toledo #spaintravel

This is 'Toledo', the old capital of Spain! It's also famous for being the background for the wedding pictorial of actors Ji Sung and Lee Bo-young, right? Walking along the streets here, where the Baroque style from the Visigothic Kingdom to the 18th century is in harmony, it feels like you've gone back to the Middle Ages😮 So, I definitely recommend you take a leisurely walk down the alleys👍🏻 ✔️It takes about 1 hour and a half by bus from Madrid . #worldtravel #spaintravel #toledo #exotic #historicsite

The Toledo Cathedral is one of the three major Gothic cathedrals in Spain, built in the 13th century. It is so large that its splendor is beyond words. However, if you go to the Toledo Cathedral, the one thing you must see is the ‘Eucharistic Monstrance.’ It is supported by four great angels, and the cross in the center is made of diamonds. It is a very precious treasure, so it is currently only on display, but it is said to be used very occasionally during important events. I also remember the sacristy, which has Luca Giordano’s ceiling painting and El Greco’s The Stripping of Christ. There is a reason they are all masterpieces. It is difficult to express in words the elaborateness and grandeur when you see them in person. :) ☑️Address: Calle Cardenal Cisneros, 1 ☑️Admission: 10 EUR ☑️Hours: Mon-Sat 10:00-18:00, Sun and public holidays 14:00-18:00 Museum Mon-Sat 10:00-18:00 Sun 14:00-18:00, Closed on January 1 and December 25 . . . #WorldTravel #EuropeanEmotion #SpainTravel #ToledoTravel #Cathedral
