Toledo, Spain

Photography Tour in Toledo

The best photos of Toledo aren't at the obvious landmarks. The real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot.

Toledo is Spain's ancient imperial capital, a walled hilltop city above the Tagus River where Christian, Muslim, and Jewish heritage intertwine in a dramatic maze of medieval streets and monuments.
