10 Things to do Good for Couples in Toledo That You Shouldn't Miss

August 1, 2021 Rosalyn Ihle

Synagogues, mosques and churches stand together in Toledo's historic quarter, a testament to the medieval Spanish city's diverse history. The four towers of The Alcazar, a fortress built in 1085, dominate the skyline. Toledo and its surrounding countryside inspired El Greco, and his paintings are on display in many places around the city, including the museum that bears his name.

Casco Historico de Toledo

Reviewed By duomo2 - Taunton, United Kingdom

Beautiful city, definitely worth a day trip from Madrid, the train was only half an hour. Everything is so well preserved and really clean, it was like an authentic theme park, if that makes sense, in that you are completely transported to a different world. Lots of narrow winding streets and beautiful buildings, absolutely stunning.

MQM Museo del Queso Manchego Toledo

Reviewed By Bob2020r - Sheffield, United Kingdom

For just a few euros, you are able to enjoy a visit to the cheese museum (a few small rooms with nice little exhibits about cheesemaking tradition), and then enjoy a glass of wine with a tasting of different manchego cheeses. We had three different manchegos to try (3 months, 6 months and 12 months) with the strength increasing, and then a pasteurised one, plus a smooth one on some toast; all served with some biscuits to clear the palette between tastings. The lady gave us a very nice explanation of what the cheeses were and how to go about the tasting to be able to pick out the flavours. She couldn't have been nicer and the environment to taste in was very relaxed and clean. There is also a great shop so you can buy cheese or other delicacies to take home. We spent an hour there and all absolutely loved it. Well worth a visit and totally deserving of its 5 star rating

Catedral Primada

One of the most imposing cathedrals in Spain, and a superb example of Gothic architecture.

Reviewed By Illiterati - St. George, United States

This may have been the most mind-blowing edifice I have ever been in. We stepped through the front entrance and were immediately overwhelmed with awe (even though this was the list day of several days of awe inspiring sites), and then we realized that all we were seeing was still only seeing one portion of all it entailed. The audio tour was very interesting, just the right amount of detail.

Puerta de Bisagra

Reviewed By chait1788 - Cambridge, Canada

The gate is the entryway to the old town of Toledo. On a regular day, it would a regular entrance archway, no doubt historically significant. We visited closer to christmas and hence the decor around the gate, made it beautiful. Was worth the visit. Also very close to the tourist centre and a good spot to catch the bus to Mirador del valle viewpoint.

Museo de Santa Cruz

Reviewed By pats284

This is a spacious and well set-out museum, once a hospital. Set out in the form of a large cross, each section takes you through a period of Spanish history, with associated art-works, paintings, sculpures, etc. It has several paintings by El Greco / the El Greco school. You can also visit the central patio and there is a permanent exhibition upstairs of pottery from the Iberian pensinsula. |t's a bit hard to find, down the steps and turn left past the statue at Zocodover Sq. The building itslf is beautiful.

Monastery of San Juan de los Reyes

Reviewed By FJGonzalezG - Bethesda, United States

Toledo’s San Juan de los Reyes monastery is beautiful and rich in history. Built in the Isabelline style (a transition between late Gothic and early Renaissance architecture, with decorative influences of Castilian, Flemish, and Mudéjar styles), the church has a long nave with side chapels. The interior is decorated with the coats of arms of the Catholic Monarchs. The beautiful cloister has a lovely garden. Make sure you walk around the small square on the northern side of the monastery to get a good view of the manacles and shackles hanging from the granite walls, as ordered by Queen Isabella in 1494, which had been worn by Christian prisoners held by the Moors in Granada. The monastery is said to have been founded by King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella in the late 15th century to commemorate the birth of their son and their victory at the Battle of Toro. Construction began in 1477 and was completed in 1504. At first, the Catholic Monarchs intended to house their mausoleum at the monastery, but later chose Granada as their resting place, after its reconquest in 1492.
