My work often takes me to Toledo, the "city of three cultures". Here I have collected my favorite shots I have taken there over the years.

Toledo.

Mysterious streets.

Door.

The chains removed from the Christian prisoners liberated in Granada in 1492.

Spires.

Fido.

Tanto Monta - the slogan at the heart of the union of the kingdoms of Castile and Aragon.

Samuel Levy - chief rabbi and treasurer to Castilian King Pedro I "the cruel"

Twins.

Adarve de Atocha - a street restored to its sixteenth century glory.

Mudejar woodwork.

Mosque of the Christ of the LIght.

Religious buildings were often erected by those of one faith, and then converted to another.

This mosque was built in the year 1000, then converted to a church in 1085.

View from the Jesuits' Church.

Church of the Saviour - the left side has romanesque arches, the right side arabic ones.

Courtyard with roman and visigothic capitels holding arab arches.

A Visigothic pillar with scenes of the life of Christ (faces were erased during Muslim rule)

Facade of the Cathedral.
