Last week we went to Segovia on a train. When we got there , we saw an amazing aqueduct that stretched 17 kilometers from the mountains. Once the water got to the city it was transported underground to everyone’s homes .

Next we went to the Alcazar. Inside the Alcazar we went up an 152 stepped tower! At the top there were amazing views over the town.

There was a great armoury at the Alcazar . We saw:
- crossbows with ivory patterns inlaid in them,
- suits of armour for knights and horses,
- mortars for firing flaming rocks,
- halberd -a spear with an axe head




Looks as though you’re having fun Mr D

Wonderful pictures and information too! I wonder what those horses thought when they put on metal armour and had to gallop with heavy men in armour on their backs on hot sunny days!
