Segovia

Segovia is probably the city that I love most in Spain! The festive atmosphere within the old city walls was just magnificent. It was almost become dusk when we arrived by train.



Aqueduct of Segovia - the most recognized symbol in Segovia which was left by Romans two thousands years ago.


There was a small group of brass band singing Christmas carols from door to door marching towards the central square in the old city. The locals and passer-bys would join them and sing along. With the medieval backdrops, I felt as if I have travelled five hundred years back into an old European village.


Segovia Cathedral

By all mean the largest building structure in Segovia sitting handsomely atop the hill. Sometimes I am really curious why would the ancient people spend so much resources and energy to build such a prominent structure in such a small city.


Alcazar of Segovia

Fairy tale-like castle built by the cliff. Gorgeous!

We should have overnight at Segovia.
