| Built as the summer residence of Cardinal Gaspar de Quiroga in 1584, La Almazara has at least two claims to fame. Firstly, it is the oldest hotel in Toledo and, secondly, it was a regular haunt of El Greco who found it the inspiration for some of his most famous paintings. It is easy to see why as the location couldn’t be more charming. Not only is it protected by some 500 hectares of olive trees, junipers and evergreen oaks, it also provides absolutely stunning views of Toledo. Rooms are simple and basic, as is the general décor, but comfortable and very clean. Additionally, a number have a private terrace overlooking the city with “that” wonderful vista. It is also close enough to the beautiful city centre of Toledo (less than a five minute drive), yet still manages to be a tranquil haven of peace. |

In Illescas, located half way between Toledo and Madrid (at 35 km from each), we find traces of a very old history, from paleolithic to the middle-ages.
Esquivias was the home-town of Cervantes. Ocaña is worth a visit because of its Roman rests, its elegant Renaissance palace and its beautiful main square, Plaza Mayor, of 18th century.
TOLEDO:
Mudejar-style churches.
Santiago del Arrabal, Cristo de la Vega, San Vicente, San Miguel, San Román and Santo Tomé. (In the latter is exposed one of El Greco's most famous paintings, \"The Funeral of Count Orgaz\")
The Mosque \"Mezquita del Cristo de la Luz\", 10th century, is extraordinarily well-conserved
The town-gate Vieja Puerta de la Bisagra, built during the 12th and 13th centuries, is the most impressive rest of the Moorish fortifications
The Cathedral , built between 1226 and 1492, with massive lines and decorations in the Mudejar style is certainly the most interesting Gothic building in town. |
