3 Best Day Trips from Madrid: Segovia, Toledo, and San Lorenzo de El Escorial | Condé Nast Traveler

"Architecture buffs will love the Toledo Cathedral, a quintessential example of Spanish Gothic style. This historic cathedral, built on the site of a former mosque, was born under the auspices of Ferdinand III, but the structure took centuries to complete and many of the chapels and naves were added by subsequent rulers. Still used for regular services, the church has a small entrance fee for non-worshippers. If you're short on time, don’t miss El Greco’s portraits of the 12 apostles, housed in the museum." - Ramsey Qubein

This building is a beautiful structure, which took over 200 years to complete. It is the highlight of any tour to Toledo. The interior is astonishing with incredible architecture and amazing sculptures. The organs require the sanctuary of the chapels. All of these are elaborate, beautiful and richly decorated. There is a golden and silver shrine in the shape of a church spire holding the holy host, which is just amazing in its beauty and intricacy. The hole that was made in one of the domes to illuminate the back of the altar, enabling light into the chamber, where the host is prepared is mind-boggling. There is an entry fee, but it’s worth the price of admission as this is one of the top five cathedrals in the Christian world.

This Cathedral is a must when visiting Toledo. Do not let the outside deter you. It is magnificent inside. The architecture, the art, the grandness is astounding. Do not miss the Chapter House, the Sacristy and the crypt under the Altar. Definitely recommending purchasing timed tickets on line to skip the ticket queue. The visit is worth every euro spent.

This beautiful cathedral with its extraordinary interior has a unique atmosphere of high spirituality. The two main altars are extraordinary. The entire interior is a space of spirituality and time enclosed in unique architectural sculptures and compositions, as well as sculptural and painting works. The beauty here is very rich and justified. This space is definitely worth seeing.

This is a must see if you go to Toledo. The Cathedral is astounding and magnificent. You have to buy a ticket in front the entrance, in a little shop. It's I'll made, as you present yourself to the first counter, just to be told, a little curtly, that the tickets are sold at the second counter. The first one being for buying trinkets. Plus the entrance is not the obvious one, the big steps that are first seen when you arrive on the plaza. It is on the right side of the Cathedral, and we learn this by walking all around the immense building. Take into account that you will need a good hour or more to really see all the nooks and cranies of the Cathedral, with all its beautiful art. Paintings, sculptures, bas-reliefs, gilded work, icons, stained glass, stonework, enluminures, etc... There are benches inside were you can pause, for people who need to rest.

The Toledo Cathedral is one of the most stunning places I’ve ever visited. The architecture, paintings, and stained glass are incredible—every detail feels full of history and art. I especially loved the main altar and the peaceful atmosphere inside. The audio guide made it easy to explore at my own pace and learn interesting facts. A truly unforgettable experience in Toledo!

This cathedral was the highlight of our visit in Toledo. The classic entrance price is 12€ which is well worth it as I spent 45min inside. The stained glasses windows were beautiful, there are some very impressive statues. There were many people but the place is huge so it is not an issue.

If you're visiting Toledo, you absolutely must visit the Toledo Cathedral. This magnificent Gothic cathedral is a culmination of history and art, and its scale and beauty are overwhelming. The admission fee is typically around 10 euros per adult, but it is well worth the cost. Inside, you'll be greeted by the breathtaking sparkle of stained glass, intricate carvings, and a grand pipe organ. Particularly striking are the detailed retablo of the main altar and the carvings of the choir stalls. You can feel the craftsmanship and passion of the artisans embedded in every single decoration. Furthermore, the treasury houses numerous valuable artworks, including works by El Greco, which are worth taking your time to admire. Climbing the cathedral's bell tower offers a panoramic view of the labyrinthine streets of the Old Town and the stunning vista of the Alcázar in the distance. It is truly a symbol of the UNESCO World Heritage city of Toledo and a place where you can deeply feel the history of Three Cultures.

It is a large Roman Catholic cathedral in Toledo, Spain. It is the seat of the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Toledo. It is one of the three 13th-century High Gothic cathedrals in Spain and is considered, in the opinion of some authorities, to be the best of the Gothic style in Spain. Picturesque place. Must see place. Level terrain, lots of easy walking. Toilets nearby
