Romanesque Segovia


On Monday we walked around Segovia and viewed the Roman architecture. Like the aqueduct (which I just realized I forgot to put pictures up of...), much of the architecture in Segovia is very old and still in good condition. We visited 3 churches, 2 of which I have shown here. The first one was very pretty inside, however the tower had not been cleaned in years. It was full of pigeon droppings and feathers. Since the stairs were skinny, steep, and full of crap (literally) it made for a difficult climb.
This tower is thought to be the most famous and beautiful Roman tower in the world. It´s connected to the Church of San Esteban. It´s very beautiful from the outside but they do not allow visits in the church, so I have to settle with this picture. So crane your neck to the side and enjoy!
