Segovia City - Heritage Of Humanity
Exterior view of The Alcazar of Segovia (literally, "Segovia Fortress") is a medieval fortress located in the city of Segovia (Spain), to World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Rising out on a rocky crag above the confluence of two rivers near the Guadarrama mountains, it is one of the most distinctive castle-palaces in Spain by virtue of its shape - like the bow of a ship. The Alcázar was originally built as a fortress but has served as a royal palace, a state prison, Royal Artillery College and a military academy since then. It is used as a museum and a military archives building. (Photo by Joaquin Gomez Sastre/NurPhoto)
