Another walled city also captured our imaginations. Recognized by UNESCO as a world heritage site for the co-existance of Catholic, Muslim and Jewish faiths,
Toledo was founded in the third century BC along the Targus River and has a history of occupation by Cathigenians, Moors and Romans. Influences of these cultures and historical architectural preferences dominate the skyline. Above is Alcazar which was built by the Romans as a stone fortification at the highest point in Toledo.
And the Roman bridge of San Marten.
