Toledo Illuminated: W

hen night falls, uncover a new Toledo, rediscover the buildings, thanks to the artistic illumination that has visitors and tourists enjoying the lights and walking the building-lined streets. The illumination highlights artistic elements like sculptures and overhangs, while also displaying the great dimensions of the buildings and other elements of Gothic, Spanish-Muslim, Renaissance and Baroque architec-

ture. At the same time, these lights represent a strong and firm commitment of the city to sustainability, respecting the environment and conserving energy. The panoramic view of the city from the Mirador, of the valley, the terraces and hotels of the Cigarrales and the “Parador of Toledo” provide an astonishingly sublime view of Toledo at night.

Near the Jewish Quarter: We invite you to discover the medieval feel of the old Toledo Jewish quarter, through projections of light that illuminate their surroundings, remembering through a symbolic form the principle entrances, gates and walls that shape the Jewish Quarter. This illumination is completed with iron plates in these points, indicating to a passing by visitor the outline of the Jewish Quarter.
