Bi-Weekly Photo: Alcazar de Segovia

This is a picture of my hometown's old castle, the Alcazar de Segovia in Spain. Since I don't really know much about its history, and copying what another website says is kind of pointless, here's a link to Wikipedia.



Here's something interesting though: Take a look at the DVD cover of "The 10th Kingdom" and see if it looks familiar. Yep, they took the Alcazar and several church towers from across Segovia (including the cathedral, of which I will probably post another photo sometime) and pasted them all together. I think the Alcazar was also used as an inspiration on several other movies, but I don't remember any specific one right now.
