Quando observamos a cidade de Toledo desde o Mirador da carretera Alto do outro lado da cidade e do rio Tejo, há dois edificios que se destacam: a Catedral e o Alcázar. Mas para mim Toledo é fantástica pelo o seu todo, porque tem tanto para ver que mesmo que se destaquem estes dois monumentos não são de nenhuma maneira mais importantes que alguma Sinagoga ou a Plaza de Zocodover. O que é certo é que uma visita a esta cidade obriga a conhecer a sua catedral, um símbolo de vários estilos que se misturam e um exemplo da história da convivência das culturas cristã, judía e árabe.
When we look at the city of Toledo from the Alto Mirador Street across the city and the Tagus river, there are two buildings that stand out: the Cathedral and Alcazar. But for me Toledo is fantastic by the whole, because it has so much to see that even though these two monuments stand out there are in no way more important than any synagogue or the Plaza de Zocodover. What is certain is that a visit to this city requires to visit its cathedral, a symbol of various styles that blend in and an example of the story of coexistence of Christian, Jewish and Arabic cultures.

O seu exterior é complicado apreciar como um todo porque as estreitas ruas da cidade não te permitem distanciar o suficiente mas há uma fachada que podemos ver desde a praça do Ayuntamiento. Nela estão três portas, a do centro que é do Perdão tem por cima um trabalho de esculturas que representa a Última Ceia. A construção começou no século XIII mas prolongou-se por mais de dois séculos, o que levou á tal mistura de estilos desde o gótico passando pelo mudéjar.
A entrada está numa lateral na porta Llana ao lado da Porta de los Leones. Desde aí entramos ao maravilhoso interior da Catedral com as suas ogivas de estilo gótico, o seu coro trabalhado e o espectacular retábulo do Altar-Mor representando os episódios mais importantes da vida de Cristo. A riqueza presente no seu interior é a clara prova da importância da cidade de Toledo, outrora capital do reino.
Its exterior is difficult to appreciate as a whole because the narrow streets did not allow you enough distance but there is a facade that we could see from the square of Ayuntamiento. In it are three doors, the one in the middle is the Forgiveness where above is a work of sculpture representing the Last Supper. Construction began in the thirteenth century but lasted for over two centuries, which led to such a mix of styles from Gothic through the Mudejar.
The entrance is on a side on the Llana door next to door los Leones. From there we walked to the wonderful interior of the Cathedral with its Gothic arches, its worked choir and great altarpiece of the high altar depicting the most important episodes from the life of Christ. The wealth inside is the clear evidence of the importance of the city of Toledo, former capital of the kingdom.

Tem que se pagar para entrar (custou 6€ quando eu fui que já foi há mais tempo) e há alguma polémica pelo facto de não ser permitido tirar fotos no seu interior. O que não tenho claro é se não se podem mesmo tirar fotos ou se é sem flash porque tirei algumas e não fui "incomodada" é certo que o fiz desde a Porta do Relógio e fora da visita. De qualquer forma o melhor é recolher informação na bilheteira.
You have to pay to get in (it was 6 € when I went there but is a long time ago) and there is some controversy by not being allowed to take pictures inside. What I don't see clear is if one can not even take pictures without flash or none at all because I took some and was not "disturbed" it is certain that I did from the Door of the Clock (reloj) and outside the visit hour. Anyway it is best to gather information at the box office.
