I can se you compare Spain with Spanish America after independence constructions. That’s building a wrong idea on you. Even knowing modern construction isn’t as beautiful as the historical buildings the general impresión you are going to find in modern Spain is of order and cleanliness everywhere.
We’re just halfway through touring the Basque region and have stayed in Bilbao,Santiago del Mar, Zamora, Salamanca, Toledo and tomorrow we are going to Madrid followed by a 3 day stay in Segovia. It’s so easy to get to from England, we took our car over on the ferry from Portsmouth. Your video is perfect.

Visited Toledo September 2018. I want to return and spend a few days to fully experience it. What I liked is people live among the museums, the Cathedral and other points of interest. Students from the local grade and high schools pass through the streets with tourists. El Greco's paintings are amazing. I'd like to see each at least twice on my next visit. Rick's photographers are real pros.
I visited Segovia and Salamanca each on a day trip, this June 2017. Loved both cities, especially since my Spanish roots are from the part of Castilla y Leon between the two. Both cities are definitely worth the visit and easy to navigate by walking. For Segovia, I'd recommend starting at the Aqueduct and then walking to Alcazar, checking out a lot of the historical buildings, small churches, the main cathedrals (and of course the main one at Plaza Mayor), and of course the Casa Machado, between these two main sites....For Salamanca, its a surprisingly short walk from the train station to all the historical sites. Of course not only the two main cathedrals (Old and New) and the Universidad, but just walk around checking out sites such as the Archbishop's residence, the many smaller churches but each with very unique and distinctive features, the Huerto de Calixto y Melibea, the Guerra Civil museum, and traverse the river while looping more north into the city and across back towards the bus station (or however you arrive). But definitely check out many alleyways and back streets, which are full of their own unique treasures. There are also many excellent tapas places throughout the city. Check out ones frequented by the locals, as the food will be much better, more authentic and cheaper than those around Plaza Mayor or the University area that cater to tourists.
@@warrenballangan123 I can because in 2017 I went to several places associated with Cervantes. His hometown Alcala de Henares, easily reached from Madrid by tren. It has his childhood home and the Church where he was baptized and christened. Then back to Madrid are several sites, especially in Barrio de las Letras. These include the building that contained the printer that first published Don Quixote. There's the Church where Cervantes willed to be buried, nearby to his final house. Elsewhere in Madrid, in a remarkable sincronicidad I came across the small building containing the writers school he attended when he first left Alcala. These are the places I personally went to associated with Cervantes but I'm sure there are others.
In 4 years I will retire and I am planning to travel with my wife each year 2-5 months through Europe. I am already planing my journeys and Steves movies are great to get the global picture. Although I visited already Barcelona, Sevilla, Malaga, Granada and Cordoba, these are just a part of what this beautiful country has to offer. The only thing I don't like is that most of the coastline of spain has been destroyed by ugly Hotel-Monsters. It is difficult to find cosy areas near the coast. Greetings from the Netherlands and hope to see you soon back, beautiful Spain!
Usually foreign's people don't cross the coastlines of Northern Spain at Cantabrian Sea and it's a pitiful mistake. The rough, lush and greens cliffs, the natural sand beach, with the forest bordering, it's a wonderful mixture balance of coast and mountain landscapes. Take you a chance on Asturias or Galicia, frankly worth the pity. I adore Asturias because it has the the mountains that envy Ireland and the frontal coastline That Switzerland sight it for.
Usted ha visitado Andalucía y Cataluña. Dos regiones muy bellas. La región de Castilla-León es la madre de España y todas sus ciudades y pueblos están llenos de historia: castillos, palacios, catedrales, monasterios, arquitectura medieval, pinturas, etc. La lista de lugares de interés cultural es, simplemente, demasiado grande y es imposible visitarlo todo en una sola vida. Solamente en castillos hay miles. Por otro lado, una inolvidable experiencia es hacer el "Camino de Santiago".
Toledo is famous for the knives and Don Quixote...Avila and Segovia were beautiful and medieval. Loved my 33rd anniversary there with the Queen. Thanks Steve!
@@bambuseptember8711 quijote is from la Mancha. Castilla la Mancha is a modern mix: a part of castilla+la mancha. Toledo is not La Mancha. Im from la Mancha but I have lived 20 years in Toledo and in love.
We visited just a part of Salamanca last July 2019,,Im very happy you shared most part of Salamanca n more places in Spain...thank you so much Steve u really knowledgeable of Europe.
Castilla es preciosa. Conserva muy bien su pasado y en un lugar muy tranquilo que entona muy bien con el entorno natural. Ojalá siga siendo poco poblada porque así conservará mejor su arquitectura y su belleza natural.
@@casrvsfv3172 Madrid era Castilla la Nueva cuando yo era niño.Para encontrar esa Castilla descrita hay que viajar de Zamora a Soria y de ahí a Cuenca y Toledo.
I really like this show I live in Spain and it really helps to make the projects. Thank you very much! me encanta esta programa yo vivo en España y me ayda mucho para hacer los proectos. ! Gracias muchisimo !
Yours are the only videos that do justice to these stunning places. We have just returned from our tour of the Basque region and Castile. We stayed in various Paradors. They really are hidden gems.
Just one thing: the cultural aspect of the moors happened only during the abasidas and the Cordoba Caliphate. After that, they were also invaded by almoravides and Almohads, which weren't tolerating people nor had much interest in mathematics, philosophy and so on
Whoa, this amazing video might be 9 years old, but the footage is at least 25. Those ashtrays in the tables of restaurant, the old cars in the streets. Just perfect.
Valencia is currently the third largest city in Spain, after Madrid, the first, and Barcelona, the second. Fourth is Seville, closely followed by Zaragoza, capital of the former Kingdom of Aragon and now capital of the Community of Aragon.
I understand what you mean. On the other hand, there's so much to see in both Toledo and Salamanca. When you have just under half an hour to cover both places, plus fitting in Segovia and Avila, it would be quite a challenge to include everything. It may be possible, but probably not without turning the whole episode into a speed run.
I quite enjoyed Toledo. I stayed near the cathedral. Thank god they've gotten rid of all of the Pepsi and Coke furniture, awnings, and table shades. red and white pre blue etc Logos writ large everywhere. The main square was an affront to the eye (summer of 1999)
I just finished watching two of your videos Madrid and this one, all places I have visited and loved❤️thanks again for taking me back in these times of Coronavirus 😐it really gives one a lift to see such beauty! I agree the Prada in Madrid is superb!!
The way he describes el alcazar de Segovia, getting rid of it..........., I think only the roof burnt in the ninetieth century, and it was rebuilt as the original thanks to Dn. José Mª Avrial in 1844 and not in a romantic style as he says.
JOSE ELORRIETA I agree, but what it's even more ofensive it's that while he's saying " barely resembling its original aspect", you can see the tower of Juan II, that has survived the whole history of the castle.
Hi Steve I love Europe I most watching your all shows I agree with you but I know it's was too old mosque mack by salahuddin inside 950s pillars its amazing
Rick Steves always appears with this superiority aura to him, like he is better than everyone else. I can imagine he is extremely difficult to deal with in his personal life.
HellYeah !!! this video its so accurate to what I've been looking for, I mean, I will be traveling to Europe in 2020 and Spain will be one of the most important places to visit, and actually Madrid along with Avila, Toledo and Segovia are some of the most important places that I want to know in Spain, so thank so much for this video, it shows alot of what I want to know by my own once I will be there ;)
If you are going to visit the center of the country other cities well worth visiting around the area are Burgos, León, Zamora, Cuenca and Cáceres (a bit more South, in Extrmadura, and very hot in summer but really beautiful), plus lots of towns and villages and natural areas.
Muchas gracias Rick! I visited Madrid for my first time recently and took a wonderful day trip to Toledo; your excellent video here is allowing me to see what I missed. I particularly appreciate your reverence for the great El Greco; seeing his work in person was a highlight of my visit to Spain. Question: Do you have a favorite hotel recommendation in Toledo? Something historic with character?
I don’t know about Rick’s favorite but we stayed at the quite central Hotel El Greco. It was a nice smaller place full of charm and affordable just a few steps from the El Greco museum.
I don't comment on the other parts of this vid, but I thought Mr Steves made a pretty good fist of presenting Toledo to the viewer. I came here for an experimental year in 2002 and 13 years later I'm still here, so either I'm a very dull chap, or the place really has something about it. (I think it's the latter.) - But Mr Steves, we do have SOME modern building in Toledo, even within el Casco. - And I'll tell you what... ;) ... los Toledanos are pretty good at making the new look old!
Abrigo Adolfo I'm sure there's apartment spaces to be had that way, I would think though they would build those on the outskirts or suburbs of Toledo otherwise.
Spain.....simply....Magnificent....visit if you haven't ! been to all of these gorgeous cities....!
Navy78 yes. i agree. me to. i studied dear...i missed Segovia..
Graciass
😏What beutifull things you said about my country😂
Ok
Cervantes made me fall in love with Toledo and Salamanca long before going there.
By far my favorite country to visit, particularly the region of Castile!
Spain is just truly magnificent, awesome history and Rick Steve’s makes it truly compelling to visit
I love Spain so much! I visited it more than 5 times and my next visit for sure will be Castille!!! So beautiful!
