A majestic ship-shaped fortress perched on a rock between two rivers, this castle inspired Disney's Cinderella Castle. Once a residence of Castilian kings, prison, and military academy. Houses an armory museum, stunning throne rooms, and the Tower of Juan II with panoramic views after 152 steps. A medieval architectural gem where Isabella I was crowned Queen of Castile.

Absolutely! 152 narrow spiral steps are worth it for 360-degree panoramic views of Segovia and Castilian countryside. Avoid if claustrophobic
