The journey takes you through quiet forests, open fields, and along the edges of rocky cliffs. You’ll feel a connection to the past as you walk these timeless routes. The blend of history, wildlife, and stunning landscapes makes every step memorable.
National Geographic magazine's historic city "Segovia"
Segovia In addition to the National Geographic magazine's favorite cathedral, there are also "big sink" and Snow White Castle, which are not to be missed.
"Ancient Roman Waterway Bridge", also known as the "Big Sink", is the most majestic and best preserved Roman ruins on the Iberian Peninsula and a symbol of Segovia. Only the ancient Romans would turn a purely functional water pipeline into a great stone art. The waterway bridge is still guiding the running water, providing water for the locals, and small geckos crawling between the cracks. The Snow White Castle here is said to be the prototype of Disney Castle. There are many colorful windows in the castle of Queen Isabella of Spain. Isabella is a talented, energetic ruler who has sponsored Columbus to cross the Atlantic and promote Latin America. Her series of key decisions have influenced Spain and Latin America for several years. Under the joint governance of Isabella and Ferdinand, the kingdom of Spain, the national strength gradually increased. They also led the army to conquer the Arabs in the last power of the Iberian Peninsula, Granada (remember the Alhambra?), complete the great cause of Spanish reunification that the monarchs of all ages dreamed of, and laid the boundaries of today's Spain.
Playing here is recommended to do some homework in Spanish history. It is not far from Madrid, and you can go back and forth one day.
Spain's Segovia
Segovia was built in the Roman period of 80 AD and is the best preserved in countless ancient cities in Spain. The
Roman waterway was one of the most important projects of the Roman era. The purpose of the project was to introduce water from the Azerbai River into the city. The 20,400 stones in the entire waterway were not plastered or cemented, but the entire structure was balanced and stable. The highest point of the waterway is located at the Assago Hall, which is 28.10 meters high and contains 167 arches. There is no paste stuck, but it has not fallen down. This can only be said to be a miracle created by mankind. It is a world that does not understand slag, but it is worth seeing. It is indeed majestic.
Segovia Cathedral, the cover of the Spanish version of Lonely Planet, is a very visible building.
Alcazar Castle, the prototype of Disney Castle. However, reality is not a fairy tale.
[Segovia hot air balloon]
go to the hot air balloon again, the destination is not Cappadocia but Segovia! Sitting on a hot air balloon to greet the first sunshine in the morning, the light is shining on us, and the whole space seems to be alive.
Overlooking the old town of Segovia and the beautiful cathedral. Cappadocia has a surface on the moon's surface, and Segovia has pastoral and churches, eh! All beautiful. We continued to fly, crossed the castle and finally came to a green pastoral land, landed in this pastoral area, the countryside is very Monet, pure and smooth green swaying with the breeze, beautiful and horrible.

[Roaming the ancient city of Segovia]
Segovia, a world cultural heritage city, walking in the movie like walking in the picture, the road at the foot is very old and old, the slate is piled up, the church and house around are very Retro, brick red walls remind you of all the old-fashioned cities, and the ancient charm that has been preserved is remembered. The landscape of Segovia is very interesting, with hills, cliffs, fields and snowy mountains. The castle is built on a cliff. The church is built in the ancient city of the hill. The church is bound by the church. The distant countryside and snow-capped mountains perfectly surround the town. Standing on the cliff's walkway outside the castle, you can see all the beautiful. everything of.
day, immediately, it is overcast, and the black side is covered with the sky side, while the other side of the sun has no dark clouds, it seems to be the next heavy rain, but it seems to continue to enjoy Ancient remains bathe in the sun. The old town of Segovia is very small, walking and returning to the ancient Roman canal bridge from different directions. The different scenery in the sky is different. At this moment, the black background makes the entire ancient Roman canal bridge have different shocking power. May is uncertain, in the beautiful old city, sometimes cloudy and sunny, sometimes the sun is raining! Its so beautiful at the moment, the last time I saw the sun rain should be the time when I was playing in the mountains of Yunnan when I was young.
is about 19 o'clock in the evening. It is a beautiful thing to stroll in the rain. I am glad that I am still strolling around the old city. A little rain feels like a stolen good. The rain only lasted for a while, and I continued to stroll through the brick red alley. Every corner wants to pat, every fork wants to go, always feels that there will be surprises in the corner, always reluctant to leave here, when you reach the end, there is a turn back to the fork that has not passed. ...
Spain's / The mixture of materials, all of which are made of stone, is not too late. I only feel that the Roman gods seem to be here and never leave.
