Breathtaking views of Segovia
The Juan II Tower is part of the Alzacar of Segovia and offers the absolute best views of historic Segovia. The entrance to the tower costs 2 euros and you can get your ticket in the ticket office. The ascent to the tower will leave you winded, but I'd issue a word of warning to elderly, heavy-set, and claustrophobic as there is only one narrow winding stairwell for those going up and down, and if you visit on a really busy day, you might have a bit of an uncomfortable time in the stairwell. So, be advised.
That being said, I loved it...perhaps even more than the Alzacar itself.
The views of the bell-towers of Old Segovia with the snow mountains in the background is priceless. It's probably the most beautiful view in central Spain and really highlights the historic romance of Segovia. If you're visiting the Alcazar (which you should), then the Juan II Tower is 100% a must!
