1. 1

   Mirador del Valle de Toledo

   30 min

   We’ll take a short taxi ride to enjoy the grand city view from across the river gorge before we head into the old town. I’ll share a brief and relaxed introduction to Toledo’s history and culture, setting the scene for what we’re about to discover together.

   This synagogue, later converted into a church, features horseshoe arches and beautifully decorated capitals. It was originally built as a Jewish synagogue around 1200 by Muslim craftsmen.
