    • Aqueduct of Segovia. This astounding structure is one of Europe’s greatest Roman monuments and an emblem for Segovia. It runs 15 kilometres before it even reaches the city, and until the 1800s it continued to transport water to Segovia from the Frío River.
    • Alcázar of Segovia. High on a crag and dominating Segovia’s western skyline, this celebrated palace has Roman and Moorish origins, but its storybook renaissance appearance dates to the 16th-century reign of Felipe II.
    • Segovia Cathedral. After Segovia’s old cathedral was destroyed in the Revolt of the Comuneros in 1520 a new one was constructed high in the former Jewish Quarter, some distance from the Alcázar where it would be out of harm’s way.
    • Walls of Segovia. As you’ll have seen at the Alcázar, Segovia’s steep topography made it easy to fortify and defend. After the Christians retook the city from the Moors in 1088 King Alfonso VI expanded the city’s defences, and with a bit of help from the tourist office you can still trace the outline of these three-kilometre-long walls today.
