A Tour of the Alcazar

The Alcazar of Segovia is a spectacular fortress on a cliff overlooking the surrounding countryside.  Built in the Mudejar style of mixed Arab and European influences, this ship-shaped castle has served as a royal residence during the Renaissance and later as the Royal Artillery School.  For a military history fan like me it was one of the great highlights of the trip, and the easiest by far to take pictures of (obviously).
