Close Please copy/paste the following text to properly cite this HowStuffWorks article: Toledo, Spain, the capital of Toledo province in New Castile. It is in central Spain, 40 miles (64 km) southwest of Madrid. Toledo is situated on a rocky bluff, surrounded on three sides by the Tagus River. Three bridges, two of which date from medieval times, span the Tagus. Because of its historical and cultural significance, Toledo has been made a national monument. Modern construction is prohibited, and the city looks today much as it did in the 16th century. The Cathedral, begun in 1226 and mixing Gothic with Moorish, Renaissance, and Baroque styles, is one of the largest and most beautiful cathedrals in Spain. On the highest point in the city stands a replica of the Alcázar. The original structure, built as a fortress in the Middle Ages and reconstructed in the 16th century as a palace for Charles V, was destroyed during the Spanish Civil War. Its ruins are maintained as a monument to the Franco forces who defended it during a 67-day siege. Casa del Greco, a 16th-century mansion near the site where El Greco once lived, is a museum displaying his works and those of other Spanish artists. The provincial museum, containing archeological exhibits and paintings, is housed in a 16th-century Renaissance building.

The climate, combined with relatively low human population (approx. 52 million) and only relatively recent modernisation have left the country with a legacy of currently relatively intact habitats. This includes some of the best agricultural habitats for wildlife in Europe and huge areas of man-modified landscape of numerous types still attractive to a wide range of species. The pressures on these are now intense however, with ever more habitats and sites disappearing or being damaged under the euphemism of 'progress', especially under modern agricultural and building policies. Fuerteventura , Gran Canaria and Tenerife), just a few kilometres away from many of these sites, wildlife often still abounds for those willing to take a look.

AREA: 504,782 sq km (194,897 sq miles). POPULATION CAPITAL: Madrid. Population: 2,866,850 LANGUAGE: Spanish Catalan, Galician and Basque TIME: GMT + 1 . ELECTRICITY: 220 volts AC, 50Hz. When you think of Spain you'll most likely picture bullfights, beaches and flamenco dancing, but although these do capture the very essence of Spain, this vibrant country has a whole lot more to offer. Spain is situated on the Iberian peninsula, and covers four-fifths of it, leaving one fifth of the peninsula to its neighbour, Portugal. The Pyrenees Mountains separate Spain from the rest of Europe, and the Strait of Gibraltar separates the country from north Africa, by just 14km (9 miles). The northern coast borders the Bay of Biscay and has a perpetual cloak of fine mist: it is often called the Costa Verde, or the Green Coast. The southern coast is extremely popular and is aptly named the Costa del Sol, or Coast of the Sun. Spain's capital is Madrid, a city with a rich cultural heritage and a friendly atmosphere. Spain's other main city, Barcelona, is a liberal and exciting city. Spanish art and architecture give this country a unique ambience. Be sure to spend time seeing Gaudi's architectural wonders and some of the country's splendid cathedrals, many of which were built over mosques from the time of the Moorish Occupation, which left an indelible imprint on Spanish culture.
