1hr out of Avila, you’ll find Segovia. It’s most stunning site is the Roman Aqueduct. This aqueduct, although no longer in use, helped to bring water from the mountains into the city.
We walked up through the winding Main Street and had lunch in a restaurant facing the main square. The food was INCREDIBLE. After lunch we toured the incredible Cathedral and learnt about its history. It is the last Gothic cathedral built in Spain.
Just outside of Segovia is the St John of the Cross Monastery. Here we celebrated Mass with pilgrims from the Brisbane Diocese. We also got to view the Alcazar Castle!Read more
