Dating back to the Roman Empire, Segovia is undoubtably one the most beautiful towns in Spain. The legacy of the Roman occupation is still present today in the form of the aqueduct which acts as the main entrance to the historic quarter of the city. This marvel of engineering was constructed from blocks of stone from the nearby Sierra de Guadarrama mountains without the use of any adhesive.
Behinds the city walls lay a myriad of houses. churches and towers all built in the iconic honey-coloured stone. Across from the main square, the Plaza Mayor lies the Cathedral which originates from the 16th century. Another landmark of note is the Alcazar Fortress, fairytale-like in appearance boasts an 80m high tower, 12 turrets and even a moat, along with a fantastic view!
Segovia is also home to hearty dishes such as casseroles, suckling pig and giant broad beans making a stay there a feast in more ways than one!
The OISE school is situated within walking distance from the town centre, with a warm family atmosphere.
