Zocodover square

It's the heart of Toledo, the meeting point, the scene where a thousand stories have happened for centuries: duels, bullfights, parades, wars, popular festivities... Here was the market for pack animals in the Islamic Tulaytela, sūq ad-dawābb in Arabic, and from it derives its name. Here you will find today a great commercial environment and terraces (if the weather permits) where you can enjoy the atmosphere.
