How beautifully the Tagus winds around Toledo

The Alcántara Bridge is one of Toledo's most important historical gateways and a key engineering feat dating back to Roman times. Originally built by the Romans as part of the roads crossing the Tagus River towards the city of Toletum, it was rebuilt in several stages due to damage and flooding of the Tagus. Notable phases include: 10th century: renovation under Islamic rule (the horseshoe arch was added). 13th century: reconstruction under Alfonso X, from which the western tower originates. 1721: replacement of the eastern tower with a Baroque triumphal arch. One of the Alcántara Bridge's greatest attractions is that it offers one of the best panoramic views of the Alcázar of Toledo, thanks to its low position next to the Tagus River.

In Toledo City, the Tagus River offers some areas with gentle rapids and bends, especially in the section between the San Martín Bridge and the Alcántara Bridge, but these are not the whitewater rapids found in mountainous areas. Still, there are water activities that allow you to enjoy the river safely and excitingly.
