Sinagoga espectacular del siglo XII, ejemplo de clásico del Toledo de las tres culturas. La visita cuesta 4€, pero también se puede hacer uso de la pulsera turística. Nada más entrar hay que dirigirse a la izquierda donde hay una tienda para sacar la entrada y poder acceder. La visita puede durar desde minutos hasta horas en función de la admiración que te despierte este tipo de lugares. Buen conservada y muy buen trabajo de iluminación para destacar cierto aspecto de su decoración y estructuras arquitectónicas.
El edificio es precioso, pero se echa en falta más paneles informativos con la historia. La entrada general es 4€ y la visita puede hacerse en 10-15 minutos. También está incluida la visita con la pulsera turística.
Maravilloso. Un pedazo de nuestra historia en pleno Toledo. Se respira espiritualidad y la notas nada más entrar. Entrar nos costó 4€ en entrada general. Merece la pena que os acerquéis a verla si estáis de visita en la ciudad.
