A Walled Beauty
Toledo, Spain is a walled, protected city.
Toledo's surrounded on three sides by a bend in the Tagus River.
The countryside and the Tagus River next to Toledo's walls.
Now just pause a moment and think of why such imposing defensive walls were needed. It's quite sobering.
It is a huge visual reminder of Europe's tumultuous past.
It leaves a stunning beauty to Toledo today.
