This picture is on the Centre of Interpretation of The Aqueduct of Segovia<\/strong>. This is a picture that is so impressive that it is worth to go to the Centre of Interpretation of the\u00a0 Aqueduct just for this picture, but there is much more. They explain to you there what the Romans did in Spain<\/strong> and more concretely on the Aqueduct.<\/p>\n Because the most amazing is not the Aqueduct but the purpose of the Aqueduct and the works done for bringing the water to Segovia from 10 miles away 2000 years ago. Do not miss this jewel. Monty Phyton in \u2018Life of Brian\u2019 ask… what have the Romans made for us?<\/strong> They made a lot my friend.<\/p>\n But you can go up and down Spain and you will find so many things made by the Romans. And in our tours, the Romans appear and disappear and you know that with those appearances and disappearances the true importance of the Romans.<\/p>\n Because of that…<\/p>\n You would not forget when you are coming to this country to ask yourself what have the Romans made for us.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n This is a very funny thing. In Spain, when you move around you see many reminiscences on the Romans<\/strong> but you do not find too many things from the 7th century to the 10th.<\/p>\n In one of our tours to Toledo, it happened something curious. We were visiting the town with a local guide. And he, after having talked about the history of centuries walking around the town, we passed by the door of a modern shop in which they sold clothes for women.<\/p>\n He told us that the owners of this shop decided to make a garage underneath their shop. They began to dig to accomplish such a task. To his surprise, they found Roman baths from 2000 years ago<\/a><\/strong> is quite a good condition.<\/p>\nMany remains of the presence of Rome in Spain compared to the first centuries of the Middle Ages (7th to 10th centuries)<\/span><\/h2>\n
