The summer in Toledo offers ideal nights to learn the most important secrets of the city. If you also want to know its most outstanding monuments and let yourself be guided by the interior of the Cathedral, here are five routes that we recommend for this summer in the Imperial City.
We offer you below five routes that will help you to know a little better the secrets and the enormous history that accumulate the old Toledan stones. This city is not known in a morning, or an afternoon, coming to the race of Madrid and fleeing again to the few hours. If you do this you will miss the best part of this city: its nights. Walk through dark sheds, listen to old legends in corners with magic, visit millenary subways… All this is possible in this city.
Toledo Shed
Route of the “Magic Toledo”
The night route par excellence in Toledo. The best initiation into the magic and secrets of the city. Anecdotes and curiosities that end with a visit to a subway.An essentially nocturnal route through forgotten alleys, adarves, under sheds and walls that enclose the centuries of mysteries that Toledo has accumulated. We will invite you to visit enchanted houses and their inhabitants, and the history of the souls that inhabited them. We will follow in the footsteps of magicians, sorceresses and witches who practiced their arts here. And we will get to know the subways and the old stories they contain.

This route visits the interior of the Cathedral, the Burial of the Lord of Orgaz (El Greco), among many other corners.
