Toledo (half day)

Only 70 km away from Madrid the imperial Toledo, emerges toward the sky of Castilla surrounded by the Tagus river. Resume of the Spanish art, history and spirituality. The whole town is a National Monument: the houses, the streets, the chruches, the palaces, its treasures and artisan products, like the famous 'Damasquinado' (gold and silver inlaying in iron), a technique we will learn about on our visit to one of its factories. We shall visit: St. Juan of the Kings, St. Tom?hurch and Synagogue. 

It is one of the oldest towns in Europe, called 'city of the three cultures', since Christians, Muslims and Jews lived together. Its genuine Spanish buildings include almost all the periods in the history (Arab, Gothic, Mudejar, Renaissance and Baroque style). Here lived the great painter El Greco in the XVI century.

Mar?la Blanca; Museum of Victorio Macho; Monastery of San Juan de los Reyes; famous technique of Damasquinado (encrust of precious metals in steel) and panoramic sightseeing of Toledo.
