Cool gate
Aug 2023
Toledo gate is in the middle of Toledo Plaza and is very triumphant and interesting. I recommend driving or waking by.

Triumphal Gate
May 2021
One of the five triumphal arches in Madrid It is close to the Toledo Bridge and is slightly away from the center and major attractions. Not worth a special visit.

Beautiful!
May 2016
Certainly one of those monuments worth seen while you are passing by on your way to the Atletico de Madrid's stadium. It is a good idea to stop here for a few minutes and take a couple of nice pictures.

Triumphal City Gate!
Sep 2020 • Solo
This is a triumphal arch in Madrid. It was built in the 19th century during the French occupation. It is just a beautiful gateway with symbols that represent Spain.

Great looking gate
Sep 2019
Just a great sight to see if you are close. Wouldn't say that it's worth it to go out your way to go visit it, but if you are nearby it's definently worth it.

Combine with a visit to the Flee Market
Jul 2018 • Couples
This is one of the most impressive arches in Madrid however it is a bit out of the way so I suggest come on a Sunday and spend an hour or two in the Flee Market located about 500 metres West of here in La Latina.

Puerta de Toledo
Mar 2017 • Couples
Puerta de Toledo is smaller than the Puerta Alcala and not as impressive.

Again it is located on a roundabout, the tour bus will go past but this is the smaller historical gate to the city.

Lovely old town peace and quiet contrast to Madrid
Sep 2015
We were advised to get our tickets the day before because sometimes they don't have any seats left. So we took the metro to Atocha which is just across the road from the train station. We bought the tickets form the information desk not one of the machines. You have to specify the time you are going and coming back. They run every 30 mins. You need to be there 30 mins before your train leaves as you have to go through a security check like at the airport. Well worth the little bit of hassle to visit a lovely peaceful old town.
When you come out of the station turn right and 100 yards along is a bus stop. Get the local bus 5 or 61 to the centre, less than 2 euros but worth it as it is too far to walk. You get the bus back from near where you are dropped off. About 10 mins to town. Half a day is more than enough here.

You need to go there...
Aug 2014 • Friends
Toledo is a magical town. I went early in the morning and have breakfast at a local bakery, the best olives, coffee, bread and "chorizo" that I have ever tasted in my life. Go and enjoy! It's a wonderful place to visit.

Beautiful Gate
Dec 2013 • Couples
The Puerta de Toledo is one of the old city gates of Madrid. It is quite imposing and is 19 meters high with three archways. The gate looks toward the direction of the city of Toledo. The gate is made of granite and stone. This gate is quite close to the Sunday flea market, the rastro.
