    Small town square, quintessential Mexico. We were there on weekend and there was street performers and lots of stands selling street food. Go hungry and stroll through to sample, they are very good. There is a beautiful old church at one side, and lots of benches to sit on. People watch, relax, wander down the lanes that spoke out from it. Cool shops, sit down for coffee. Amazing restaurants nearby.

    Another example of how a city can be. A delightful place, plenty of green and spaces to walk around and have some time for your own or your loved ones. You can seat, you can have a sandwich in complete peace, you can coexist with other people that are just going by. A "must do".

    This Church is simply impressive, the facade is beautiful, the environment and its legend of the baptism of the King.
    An essential place if you are in Valladolid for tourism.

    Though it’s easy (and understandable) to get caught up in the excellent shops, restaurants, cafes, parks, and museums of Valladolid, be sure to devote time to some of the buildings of its historic university, which is one of the oldest in Europe. One of the primary central buildings, which is illuminated at night, has an intricate Baroque facade and an interior decorated with colorful Spanish tiles and sporting a grand staircase. Another significant edifice, not too far away, houses the historic library of Santa Cruz upstairs and a serenely beautiful cloister at its center. If you need help finding these spaces, just ask one of the many passing students!

    This former small shopping arcade has been beautifully restored and brought to life with a mix of popular bars and cafes. Having explored the space in daytime and in the evening, I think it is seen to better advantage at night, when it is beautifully and dramatically lit inside. There are several pleasing sculptural elements, as well. My only caveat is that -- although the passage is open to the air at both ends --there was perhaps a little bit too much cigarette smoking inside . . .

    It's a very imposing building with an interesting equestrian statue in front of it suitable for a cavalry school.

    This little house isn't exactly where Cervantes lived, but does have some interesting information about the man and the era. Most of the displays also had an English translation, which was helpful. It is quite small, but I enjoyed walking through the house.

    Lovely old church a few steps from the cathedral. Well worth a visit, if only for its simplicity. The interior is very unlike any other I have seen in Spain but is a serene oasis.

    It is a beautiful ancient nativity, in the traditional style of Naples, with all the characters you would expect to find. I was surprised to find such a beautiful one outside not only of nappies, but of Italy

    This castle is filled with fantastical things- fairy bones, dragon skeletons and dragon eggs as well as a unicorn. There is an apothecary room with old potions and jars of oddities. You get to walk through ancient castle rooms and halls. The eight of us thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

    This is one of the oldest palaces in Valladolid. It was built in the 15th century. It is one of the main buildings of the University of Valladolid. The facade is beautiful and in the inside, there is an awesome chapel with a statue of Christ.
