Roman Circus in Mérida, Spain
Roman Circus in Mérida, Spain
Spain's Toledo, the City of Three Cultures
Toledo is a municipality located in central Spain, 70 km south of Madrid. It was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1986 for its extensive cultural and monumental heritage and historical co-existence of Christian, Muslim and Jewish cultures.
Toledo is known as the Imperial City for having been the main venue of the court of Charles I, and as the City of the Three Cultures, having been influenced by a historical co-existence of Christians, Muslims and Jews. In 1085, the city fell to Alfonso VI of Castile as the first major city in the Christian Reconquista. Toledo has a history in the production of bladed weapons, which are now popular souvenirs of the city.
An often overlooked gem, Toledo sits majestically above the the Tagus River. The history of Toledo dates back to Roman occupation circa 192BC. The ruins of the Roman circus are still visible just outside the walls of the city. Roman occupation was followed by Visigoth rule, Muslim rule and finally the Reconquest of Toledo in 1085AD. Toledo was the capital of the Spanish empire until the mid 1500's when the royal court moved to Madrid. The winding, cobbled streets of the old town are often crowded with locals and tourists, as well as a surprisingly large number of cars and vans. Don't miss the 13th century cathedral or the Alcázar which sits atop the town and dates back to Roman times.
Denoted a UNESCO heritage site in 1986, Toledo represents a very worthwhile day-trip from Madrid. Arm yourself with a map to avoid getting completely lost!

TOLEDO Spain
Toledo arose over the course of 2,500 years, whose legacy we can observe today in its
streets, monuments and museums.
On the other side of the Tagus River, at the Cerro del Bu archaeological site, remnants
of its origins as a city take us back to its oldest inhabitants, the Carpetani, who dwelled
here during the Bronze Age.
Conquering the city in 192 BC, the Romans renamed it Toletum. Today one can still see
signs of the Empire’s heritage, in the traces of the Roman road, the circus for chariot
races, beams, mosaics and, in Carranque, near Toledo, the villa, it is believed, of
Maternus Cinegius, who served under Emperor Theodosius I.
After the Visigoths’ taking of the city in the 4th century, they established the capital of
their kingdom here, and two centuries later, in 589, Reccared would convene the
Council of Toledo, at which Arianism was rejected and Catholicism was embraced as
the kingdom's faith.
But Visigothic hegemony would only last until 711, when the Moors conquered the
capital. It is to this empire that Toledo owes its current form, including the narrow and
steep streets we walk today, and architectural highlights like the mosques of Cristo de
la Luz, and Tornerías; and the Puerta de Alcantara gate.
The Reconquest reached Toledo in 1085 and, after the Christians' victory, King Alfonso
VI made it the capital of the Kingdom of Castile, wresting this honour from Burgos.
In 1226, Fernando III began construction on the Cathedral of Toledo, on what had been
the city’s Mezquita Mayor, or Main Mosque.
Meanwhile, throughout these centuries of conquest and reconquest, the Jews had
remained in Toledo, also shaping it and leaving us examples of their architecture, such
as the Synagogue of Santa María la Blanca, and that of El Tránsito. This cultural
coexistence would begin to erode in the 14th century, until it was shattered by the
Catholic Monarchs, who decreed the expulsion of the Jews in 1492.
These kings were also responsible for the contruction of the Monasterio de San Juan
de los Reyes, Toledo's quintessential Gothic building. In fact, it was here where they
wished to be buried, though their remains were ultimately laid to rest far from Toledo,
in Granada's Royal Chapel.
In the 16th century, after the revolt of los comuneros against King Charles V, the ruler
wished to show the world the power of the Empire's capital through impressive works
of Renaissance architecture, such as El Alcázar, now an army museum – which would
have a sad moment of prominence during the Spanish Civil War, when rebel troops
resisted the Republican army's siege of the fortress.
Many centuries before this episode, Toledo's hegemony as capital of the kingdom
came to an end when in 1561 the King Felipe II moved the court to Madrid, relegating
Toledo to city of convents and monasteries. It was during this era when the artist that
would forever be associated with the culture of the city moved there: El Greco. It was
here where the painter developed his fullest and most personal style, with works like
the main altarpiece of the church of Santo Domingo el Antiguo, and The Burial of the
Count of Orgaz, which we can view in the church of Santo Tomé.
Today Toledo is the capital of Castilla la Mancha, and a living example of the cultures
that have shaped, over the centuries, the country we are today.

The history of the Iberian Peninsula comes alive through the legends and stone architecture of Spain's most treasured buildings and monuments. This fascinating documentary delves into the cultural and architectural influences that invading civilizations have brought to Spain throughout the centuries. Take a journey through Spain’s most spectacular icons of the past dating to Roman, Moor and Christian influences. The ancient Roman ruins found in Merida and Segovia are some of the best preserved in Europe. When the invading Roman armies conquered the Iberian peninsula they brought with them a network of roads, bridges, buildings and great soaring aqueducts. Ruins from these structures remain preserved today. The Moors who invaded the peninsula five centuries later, created elaborate citadels, mosques and palaces. Examples of the Moors influence can be found today in many locations across Spain including the city of Sevilla. These were structures where color, light and space combined in ways unseen in earlier Romanesque buildings. The Moors also established the cultivation of Saffron, which to this day, is the most precious spice in the world. Viewers will visit the Castilla La Mancha region of Spain where Saffron is grown. Nearly 90 of the more than 500 castles built by the Moors during the Middle Ages remain intact today spread throughout the Spanish countryside. Others have crumbled to the ground as remnants and ruins from the great battles between the Christians and the Moors. Gothic architectural style was introduced as the Christian armies of northern Spain moved south. Gothic cathedrals like the ones visited in Leon and Toledo have always been, and remain, some of the most dramatic forms of architecture ever created. Discover Spain’s history through the exploration of this ancient region’s castles, cathedrals and ruins…an inheritance from the past and a legacy for the future.

로마제국 시절 대전차경기나 말경주 등 주로 대형 행사가 이루어졌던 노천 대경기장인 로만 서커스. 당시의 석벽들과 아치형의 천정이 선명하게 남아있다. 로마가 아닌 스페인 타라고나에서 만난 원형 경기장은 놀라움 그 자체다. 타라고나 해변에 세워진 이곳은 검투사들의 생사를 건 혈투가 펼쳐졌던 곳이며 3세기경엔 그리스도교들의 처형장이었다고도 한다. 이곳의 빛바랜 석벽과 기둥들이 당시의 역사를 생생하게 전달해주는 것 같다. 타라고나 외곽에 위치한 ‘악마의 다리’. 긴 세월에도 불구하고 그 형태가 잘 보존되어 있는 이 수로교는 전형적인 로마 수로의 특징인 아치형의 구조를 그대로 보여주고 있다. 이렇듯 타라고나의 유적들은 2천년의 세월을 넘어 화려하고 풍요로웠던 로마제국의 도시 ‘타라코’에 있는 듯한 착각이 갖게 한다.

One of the great historic cities of Europe and as many a Spaniard would say, If you have not been to Toledo you have not really been to Spain, This video shows us the old city walls and then takes us through the City gate into the old town. The begining of a trip back in time.
Spain 2: Merida
The video documents a family trip to the Roman city of Merida, in Spain. The city is one of the most preserved Roman cities around the world. It has a circus, theatre, amphitheatre, a Roman bridge, and many other interesting ruins.
The town was founded in 25 BC, with the name of Emerita Augusta (meaning the veterans – discharged soldiers – of the army of Augustus, who founded the city; the name Mérida is an evolution of this) by order of Emperor Augustus, to protect a pass and a bridge over the Guadiana river. The city became the capital of Lusitania province, and one of the most important cities in the Roman empire. Mérida preserves more important ancient Roman monuments than any other city in Spain, including a triumphal arch of the age of Trajan.
The Archaeological Ensemble of Mérida has been a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1993.
