Segovia: A Journey to the Middle Ages

Located on the high plains of central Spain, Segovia sits atop a hill beyond the fields, resembling a city where time has stood still. This serene and dignified place is imbued with the stories of stones that have endured thousands of years. As you enter the city, the first thing that catches your eye is the massive Roman aqueduct. Its towering double rows of stone arches stretch across the sky, instantly reminding visitors that this city was once part of ancient Rome. Walking under the aqueduct and through the narrow streets, you’ll eventually encounter Segovia’s iconic Alcázar castle perched on the edge of a cliff. With its pointed towers and sky-piercing spires, it feels more like a scene from a fairy tale than reality, and it even served as inspiration for Disney’s Snow White castle.
