A local would say...

El Greco painted this exact view in 1596 — and it hasn't changed much since

To get the ultimate photo of Toledo you need to cross the Río Tajo and climb the road on the other side to this strategic viewpoint. The view is not dissimilar to the one depicted by El Greco in his famous landscape, Vista de Toledo (1596-1600). The entire city — cathedral, Alcázar, spires, river gorge — spreads before you in one breathtaking panorama.
