Opposite, El Alcázar, one of the most famous castles in the world, in the Gothic-Herrera style, dating from the 12th century. Twenty-two monarchs have passed through its interior, including the Catholic Monarchs, Isabel and Fernando. To your left is the tower of the Gothic cathedral, Nuestra Señora de la Asunción y de San Frutos de Segovia, known as the Lady of the Cathedrals. The wall, with a perimeter of more than 3,000 meters, surrounds the entire historic center of the city, being born and dying in the Alcázar.
AUTHOR
I am a self-taught photographer born in 1971, in Segovia, Spain. I've always liked taking photos, ever since my father gave me my first Olympus Pen camera, but I didn't start taking it seriously until a couple of years ago. Last year I got interested and learned how to take black and white fine art architectural photography and entered my first competition, winning a second prize, a top 5 and several honorable mentions in the 2021 IPA Awards that same year. I try to improve day by day the technique so complicated that this type of photography entails.
