The ancient city of Toledo is a must-see!

Toledo is a town in Spain and the capital of the autonomous community of Castile-La Mancha. Located 70 km south of Madrid, the town is surrounded by the Tagus River. Toledo has a rich historical and cultural heritage and is a historic city in Europe. It was once the capital of the Roman Empire and was later occupied by the Arabs, becoming the "City of Three Cultures." Toledo was first conquered by the Romans in 190 BC and named Toletum. During the Visigothic period, Toledo became the capital of Spain and in the 8th century became the "City of Three Cultures," where Arabs, Christians, and Jews lived together. In 1561, Philip II moved the court to Madrid, and Toledo declined, but it is still the seat of the Spanish Cardinal. Toledo is known for its rich historical sites and architecture. The town has magnificent castles, ancient walls, and several gates, such as the Puerta de Bisagra and the Puerta de Alfonso VI. These buildings witness the historical changes and cultural integration of Toledo. In addition, Toledo is also a microcosm of the integration of Spanish nationalities, where different nationalities and cultures coexist harmoniously, leaving valuable artistic and historical heritage. Every year, a large number of tourists come to admire the historical sites and architecture of Toledo. UNESCO has listed it as a World Heritage Site, demonstrating its important cultural value worldwide.
