Toledo is an old town, a former capital of Spain, a nice place to visit and quite different from Madrid. The most impressive sight in Toledo is the Gothic cathedral from 13th century. This is probably the largest cathedral I have ever seen, also the most decorated one, and with the most interesting objects in it, such as paintings by Goya, van Dyck, Velazques, etc. The streets in Toledo are narrow and most of them in the core centre of the town have some kind of a cover over them, probably because it can get really hot in summer. Toledo is just half an hour away by train from Madrid, and I highly recommend visiting it.
