A Karen Brown Recommendation
Segovia (Castilla y Leon)
Spain

Segovia was an important city even before the Romans came in 80 B.C. It was occupied by the Moors between the 8th and 11th centuries, and was reconquered by the Christians in 1085. Segovia claims one of the finest Roman aqueducts in existence today, and it still functions to bring water from the Riofrío River to the city. Thought to have been built in the 1st or 2nd century A.D., it is constructed, without mortar, of granite from the nearby mountains. It is almost a kilometer long and over 27 meters above the ground at its highest point as it crosses the Plaza de Azoguejo. Park by the aqueduct and head into the town.
