There is a ticket machine inside just before the ticket office which could be busy at times. The bus is on schedule, clean and comfy for the one hour 20 mins trip. There is also a train from Chamartin metro station. We chose the bus as it is just a few minutes walk to Plaza de Azoguejo, whereas the train station is about 20-30 mins walk away.
Places to visit
Plaza de Azoguejo – Is where you can see the aqueduct of Segovia in all its glory. The aqueduct reaches its highest point of 28 meters in the middle of the square. The square is a great starting point for your exploration in Segovia.
Aqueduct of Segovia – This massive Roman aqueduct with 166 arches and spanning more than 17 kms is one of the most incredible sights to see. The fact that this heavy stones (no kind of mortar was used) structure is still standing today is testament to the skills of the builders of the time. Walk to the top to admire this aqueduct and for some great photos.
Cathedral of Segovia – The apse of this temple, the construction of which began in 1525, marks the boundaries between the Plaza Mayor and the Judería Vieja (Old Jewish Quarter). Inside, the 16th century-stained glass windows and the Altarpiece designed by Sabatini are particularly noteworthy. €3/p
Alcazar – This inspired Disney castle has a beautiful stair path and walk around outside for amazing views from every angle of the castle. We didn’t visit inside. €9/p
Eat
We enjoyed a rabo del toro lunch in Plaza de Azoguejo.
On a side note, after visiting Segovia and Toledo, we enjoyed Toledo more. We really liked wandering the old town narrow streets, its history, soaking it’s charm. here were a lot more to see in Toledo. That’s a personal opinion.
