The city is a National Monument to Spain's art, history and spirituality. Towering towards the sky of Castile, surrounded by the river Tajo, Toledo is a walled town with eight access doors to the old quarter the principal one being the Bisagra door. Throughout the town you can appreciate the different architectural styles of Arabic, Mudejar Gothic and Renaissance whilst walking through its charming narrow alleys.
