SIGHTSEEING
The city of Toledo, conquered by the Romans in S. II BC
and declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1986,
is a fantastic venue to enjoy your favourite sport at the
time you step back in time while visiting a capital where
by centuries Muslims, Jews and Christians coexisted.
Toledo is also known as “The Imperial City”, as it was
the capital of the Spanish Empire at different stages until
1560. As a proof of that you can, between matches, wander around the convoluted and narrow streets in search
of its magnificent monuments, finding that perfect corner for a picture, a terrace where you can enjoy a drink or
just that place to find yourself.
OTHERS
Toledo is only one step away from Madrid (50 minutes
away by road and 25 by fast train), offering all sort of amenities to our visitors, sportsmen and fans. World known
museums like el Prado http://www.museodelprado.es/,
Reina Sofía http://www.museoreinasofia.es/index.html,
the Warner Amusement Park http://www.parquewarner.
com/ or the Madrid Zoo www.zoomadrid.com are only
some indications of what to do if you want to make a one
day excursion.
