A Pleasure for the Senses
The patio in Toledo forms part of the cultural heritage of ancient civilizations, such as the Roman and Arab ones. However, the traditional patio in Toledo has its main precedent in the Arab culture, where the houses and palaces were structured around this space.
Almost all buildings and monuments in the old part of Toledo have a patio full of plants, ceramics and fountains, among other decorative elements, that can be visited, especially during the Corpus Christi festivities, when many of them dress up for the occasion.
