Old Segovia - Winter Slumber This was the reward after a chilly day’s hike over Spanish hills: a lovely view of medieval Segovia in the soft embrace of January. The ancient castle towers, imposing, yet graceful, keep gentle watch over the hamlets below just as they did hundreds of years ago. A thin layer of snow covers the town like a cozy blanket. Segovia’s quiet slumber is both relaxing and inspiring. Old Europe in all its charm, elegance, and mystery.
