The Alcázar of Segovia awaits us to begin our mysterious walk, learning about a tragic event that devastated the crown of Castile or the paranormal phenomena that can be found in nearby places, such as the Church of the Vera Cruz. Did you know that rooks have not dared to approach this temple for centuries?

We will skirt the beautiful Segovia Cathedral to discover why the Puerta de San Andrés is also known as the Puerta del Socorro or Puerta de la Judería, as well as one of the most popular legends of the city, that of Marisaltos. Nearby, in the Plaza Mayor, we will be surprised by the tragic love story behind the sculpture of the Recumbent Christ in the Cathedral.

In the Plaza del Corpus Christi we will immerse ourselves in the life of Antonio Pérez, secretary of Philip II and popular for his love affairs and machinations in the court. We will not stray far from ancient royalty, since in the Plaza de Medina del Campo a curious story awaits us whose protagonist is Doña Juana of Portugal.

Next to the Mirador de la Canaleja we will not only enjoy incredible views, but we will also be able to delve into the secrets hidden in the Casa de los Picos or into one of the oldest stories in the city, that of the Dead Woman.
