If you’re going to Madrid, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is worth a visit too! About an hour or so away, one can conveniently purchase a bus ticket at the Madrid Moncloa station for maybe around 10 euros for a return ticket (I’m sorry I forgot the exact price but it was affordable!). And the bus takes you right to the centre of Segovia, which is great.

From there, in just 10 minutes or so you can walk/stroll to this amazing, impressive aqueduct, very obviously the main feature of this town. It’s unmissable and even the main street leading up to it is named after it. Its grand and old and anything grand and old is worth looking at, in my opinion hahaha because hey, it’s been standing for ages. A little piece of history and culture, you know?

Seg&oacute;via, Spain, the most marked and well-known landscape, not the &quot;Ancient Roman Grand Aqueduct&quot;. During the ancient Roman period of Turazhen the Great (AD 53-117), in order to introduce the water of the Frio River 18 kilometers away into the city of Segolia, the canal was dug and aqueducts were built to attract water into the city. The aqueduct is 813 meters long and is made of dry khaki granite (without mortar), which is strong and unusual. The aqueduct is 813 meters long and 128 towering columns support double-layered 148 arches. The top of the sink is a canal, more than 30 meters above the ground. The initial section standard 30X30cm was repaired at the end of the 15th century and was converted into a cement tank around 1930, and has been maintained and used since then. The Da Aqueduct has become the city symbol of Segovia. The city emblem and flag of Segovia, and the image of the Da Aqueduct is in the center. In 1985, the ancient city of Segovia + ancient Roman Grand Aqueduct was listed as a World Heritage Site. The current Grand Aqueduct stands at the southern end of the core tourist area of Segovia; the south side is the parking lot (no vehicles can enter the core tourist area), and the north side is the Grand Plaza and the visitor center. The tourists coming and going, hustle and bustle, looking up, queuing for pictures, are all impressed by the unique beautiful scenery.

Getting There - Segovia, one of my favorite city in Spain, which is not far from Madrid, only an hour by train. 
Attractions - Its centuries of settlement have resulted in a rich architectural legacy, including medieval walls, Romanesque churches, a former royal palace and a Gothic cathedral. Its iconic ancient Roman aqueduct has more than 160 arches, most in the original mortarless granite, and stands above Plaza Azoguejo in the heart of the city. 

The Alcazar of Segovia, the royal palace built on a stone peninsula between the rivers Eresma and Clamores, is documented for the first time in 1122

The Segovia Cathedral, the last Gothic cathedral built in Spain. It is considered a masterpiece of Basque-Castilian Gothic architecture and is known as "The Lady of Cathedrals."

Food & Restaurants - Jose Maria’s bbq suckling pigs and roast baby lamb are the best I have had.

Churches and Cathedrals

The Segovia Cathedral, which stands at the highest point of the ancient city of Segovia, has won the reputation of &quot;the lady in the church&quot; for its elegant shape. In 1520, the old Romanesque church on the original site was burned in the fire of war; During the reign of Carlos V, construction of the new church began in 1525, taking nearly 200 years to complete. As the latest Gothic church in Spain, the Cathedral of Segovia is a classic work of late Gothic architecture. The main tower of the Byzantine 88-meter-high clock tower is directly piercing the sky, the Roman-style arches are magnificent, the Gothic spires are scattered, the towering main tower is in line with the many small spires scattered, and the flowery appearance of the &quot;lady&quot; is more &quot;majesty&quot;... Mayor Square in front of the church, The tourists were excited to take the cathedral as the background.
