Shopping in Toledo

GUÍA TURÍSTICA

One of the most attractive options for another way to enjoy our city is shopping. The historic center of Toledo is full of traditional shops with souvenirs and typical products (damasquinos, swords, knives, pottery, marzipan, etc...)

In every corner you can find some of these stores, especially in the areas of the most important monuments, but the most important trade routes in this regard are the streets in and around Santo Tome by the Jewish neighborhood. Toledo is proud of their swords and sword makers. Tempered, overwhelming and sharp, marked by a fire which imprints character. Search for the swords that have the stamp of origin “Made in Toledo” that certifies that it was made in the city accredited for its excellence.

If the sword is from the fortress of Toledo, the craftsmanship is its soul. Each thread of gold, of silver, every artisanal incrustation, is an inherent part of a plot of uniqueness in which the designers play a central and unique role.

The marzipan is another indisputable sign of the identity of the city. Made by hand, it is one of the principal gastronomic attractions for the visitor who arrives at this imperial city. •••
