What a beautiful place

Extremely beautiful, well-kept monastery. It is worth entering and seeing the idyllic garden surrounded by two levels of cloisters, intricate decorations and sculptures, and of course the church itself with a stately altar. This monastery was built as a mausoleum for the Catholic monarchs before they moved to Granada. A beautiful monastery well worth visiting.

    Short stop in Toledo
    This was a surprisingly beautiful stop in Toledo. The exterior is quite lovely with its Gothic details. The cloister is a nice space, especially the upper level, which has beautiful wooden ceilings and the carved symbols from Ferdinand and Isabella's time. It is an interesting blend of Gothic and Moorish detail. The church is well worth a visit. It is quite spartan and without much color, but some of the stone work on the walls is quite fascinating. It surprised us, as the door is quite small and you step into an enormous space. It is also part of the €12 "bracelet" group.

    A pearl in Toledo
    The Monastery of San Juan de los Reyes is located in the lower part of the city new to the Jewish area. Is is a pure beauty with two levels cloister. It is also contiguous to a beautiful church.
