Auf dem Weg nach Salamanca haben wir heute in Segovia Station gemacht.
Die Stadt hat einiges zu bieten: ein beeindruckendes Aquädukt, eine quirlige Altstadt mit einer riesigen Kathedrale und einen tollen Alcazar.
Wir sind durch die sehr gut besuchte Stadt mit seinen tollen Bauwerken geschlendert und haben das einmalige Karussell mit den vielen fröhlichen Kids bewundert.
Segovia ist echt sehenswert!Okumaya devam et

naturweltenbummler Ja, wir sind von dieser Gegend hier immer wieder begeistert. Werden jetzt wieder mal einige Tage in Salamanca einchecken und dann Richtung Extrematura und portugiesisches Grenzland mit seinen kleinen Dörfern aufmachen … falls das Wetter so bleibt.

Romulus und Remus
3 Eylül 2022, Ispanya ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
Siehe da und STAUNE 😮😮😮

Unglaublich was die Römer geschaffen haben, und es noch immer steht. Da könnte sich das eine oder andere Unternehmen ne Scheibe von abschneiden. Zu solchen Meisterleistungen sind wir heutzutage garnicht mehr in der lage.

Noch schnell ein Schnappschuss von Romulus und Remus, wie sie von ihrer Wolfsmutter gesäugt werden.Okumaya devam et

Segovia is known for its collosal aqueduct, the largest and best preserved of the Roman Empire. The city is surrounded by hills and a green belt, where we did a really nice hike while enjoying the best views of the Alcazar and the Cathedral!

On our way to Toledo, we tried to visit Valle de los Caidos and El Escorial, but forgot that Monday is often closing day, rookie mistake! We hiked to 'Silla de Felipe II' to catch a glimpse of the enormous monastery-palace. According to tradition, King Filips II supervised construction of the seat of his empire from this seat carved into rock. Boomie became friends with the prettiest cows along the hike!Okumaya devam et

Unser Ziel war Segovia. Wir parkten auf dem städtischen gratis-Stellplatz und bewunderten den langen Aquädukt, der zu römischen Zeiten das Wasser aus 18 Kilometer Entfernung in die Stadt brachte.
Die alte Wehrburg, der Alcázar, wurde modern renoviert und ist heute ein Museum.Okumaya devam et

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!Okumaya devam et

Cercedilla to Segovia - Broooodal!
11 Eylül 2019, Ispanya ⋅ ☀️ 14 °C
Cercedilla to Segovia

Today was a long hard day. The first part was a long upward climb on an old Roman road over the mountain pass between Cercedilla and Segovia. The large rocks were a real problem to navigate. Climbing further to the summit, the temperature dropped drastically. Was near freezing at the top. This was followed by a nice descent thru a pine forest, but the last 15 Klms were thru a long and boring dry grazing fields. Left Cercedilla at 7:15 this morning, and staggered into Segovia at around 4:30.Okumaya devam et

El Acueducto de Segovia
16 Eylül 2023, Ispanya ⋅ ☁️ 68 °F
》The Aqueduct of Segovia

It was built during the second half of the 1st century A.D. under the rule of the Roman Empire and supplied water from the Frío River to the city into the 20th century. The remaining portion of the structure stands 28.5 meters tall at its maximum height and nearly 6 additional meters deep in the main section. Along 14 kilometers of rolling landscape, the aqueduct adjusts to the contours of the valley, hills, and city and creates a sense of grandeur and monumentality. The pillars and arches of its tall, two-story arcades are made of solid blocks of stone fit closely together with little or no mortar, and the lower arches alternate in height according to the structure’s adaptation to the contours of the land. It is made of 167 arches fashioned from the granite stone of the Guadarrama Mountains.

Detrimental reconstruction occurred in the 15th and 16th centuries, and not until the 1970s and 1990s was there urgent conservation intervention. The aqueduct was inscribed on the World Heritage list in 1985 and stands prominently in the urban landscape of Segovia. The Aqueduct of Segovia remains one of the most intact Roman aqueducts in Europe.

》Perhaps the least known story surrounding this magnum opus of the 1st or 2nd century is the legend of the serving girl who used to climb, every day, to the very top of the mountain and return with her pitcher full of water. One day, fed up of this daily toil, she made a wish to the Devil, whom she asked to build some means by which she would no longer need to go up and down every morning with her pitcher. One night Lucifer granted her wish, asking for her soul in return if he managed to finish the aqueduct before the cockerel crowed.

The girl agreed and the Devil began to build the aqueduct but the girl regretted her decision. Just as he was about to lay the last stone, the cockerel crowed, meaning the Devil lost his wager and the girl kept her soul. In the gap that remained, the statue of the Virgin of Fuencisla, patroness of the city, stands today.Okumaya devam et

Next Stop - SEGOVIA
9 Ekim 2023, Ispanya ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
We boarded the bus to make the 10km journey to Segovia which was to be our home for the next two nights. Segovia is an historic city northwest of Madrid, in central Spain’s Castile and León region. It’s centuries of settlement have resulted in a rich architectural legacy, including medieval walls, Romanesque churches, a former royal palace (Alcazar) and a Gothic cathedral. The city centre was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1985.

It’s iconic ancient Roman aqueduct has more than 160 arches, most in the original mortarless granite, and stands above Plaza Azoguejo in the heart of the city. Dating from the late 1st or early 2nd century AD, it consists of about 25,000 granite blocks and spans 818 metres above ground, with the highest arch being 29 metres.

The end of the Middle Ages saw something of a golden age for Segovia, with a growing Jewish population and the creation of a foundation for a powerful cloth industry. Several works of Gothic architecture were also completed during this period. Notably, Isabella was proclaimed queen of Castile in the Church of San Miguel de Segovia in 1474.

Once we checked into our hotel and freshened up we headed out to wander around the old city, check out the aqueduct and have an early dinner (by Spanish standards).Okumaya devam et

Segovia - Stadt mit Aquädukt
11 Mart, Ispanya ⋅ ☁️ 2 °C
Segovia hat ein tolles Aquädukt, eine schöne Innenstadt und eine eindrucksvolle Festung.
Sie ist eine der 3 historischen Metropolen und seit 1985 UNESCO Weltkulturerbe.
Mit knapp 50.000 Einwohnern etwas kleiner, aber doch sehr viel belebter, wie Ávila.
Die Festung sei die Spanische Antwort auf Schloss Neu Schwanstein wird mir erzählt...Okumaya devam et

The Roman Aqueduct
26 Şubat 2022, Ispanya ⋅ ⛅ 10 °C
Ronan is still in the boatyard and won’t be launching the boat for another few days. Since the current living conditions on Regal are sub-standard we decide to convert our trip to Madrid into a road trip.
I am more than a little apprehensive as I drive the rental car out of Estacion de Atocha in the city centre of Madrid. I worry that I will get us rightly lost in this gigantic city. Ruby is promptly promoted to the front seat to help navigate and the google maps lady is on hand. I do what I am told and without much ado we are shortly on the right road and are on our way to see the Aqueduct in Segovia.
I park outside the town because experience has taught me that Spanish towns can have such warren-like narrow streets to induce palpitations and profuse sweating. As luck would have it, we have parked just by the very top of the Roman Aqueduct. Here it is only hip height and we can see the narrow duct that carried the water nearly 2000 years ago. We have the pleasure of walking along side its walls all the way down the hill into the town. As we decease, the Aqueduct grows so that the duct on top maintains its level. When we reach the town below the duct is now 30 metres high above us. It is incredible. We continue to walk alongside it, marvelling at its 166 Arches until we are at the top of it on the other side.
Here we have arrived up into the old quarter of Segovia. We wander down along the narrow streets, stopping beside other tourists to admire the impressive Cathedral. We continue on the tourist trail to the Alcazar which is a fairytale castle perched on the edge of the town and overlooking the valley below. It was apparently the inspiration for the Disneyland Castle in Orlando and that is certainly what it looks like with its many towers and turrets.
As we walk back towards town there are panoramic views over the valley and beyond it to snow-capped mountains.
In the lower part of the town there are people sitting outside cafes enjoying a drink and a wonderful view of the Aqueduct. We marvel at it once more and then trace its walls all the way back up to the car.Okumaya devam et
