Taking A Train To Segovia, Spain
My friends in Spain have been asking me when I will be visiting that country again. I told them, if I have the budget I will probably visit them again in Madrid. I had a wonderful three weeks stay last March 2012 in Spain. Despite of a bad experience, I am still loving it.

One of the cities I visited during my sidetrips from Madrid was Segovia. I took the train from Chamartin station in Madrid boarding the AVE (high speed train) to Segovia. I guess I paid around 30.00 Euros for the return ticket. There are a lot of plastic bins used for trash you can inside the train. With that 30 minutes journey, I never found it boring because I love to look outside the window for some sightseeing.
One of the sights I experience in Segovia is its famous Roman aqueduct. It was built by the Romans around the late 1st Century AD to supply water to the roman military fort on the hill. The Aqueduct’s highest point is 28 meters in Azoguejo Square.
I have here an image how this aqueduct look like.
